Experimental particle physics is the practical investigation ... when matter collides together at speeds close to that of light. The ALPHA Collaboration reports measurements of the hyperfine ...

Astrophysical bow shocks and other multiscale phenomena work like cosmic particle accelerators to launch electrons to ...

They are also accelerated close to the speed of light and 'ride' along on the plasma wave, gaining energy while they do so. The wide range of applications of these laser-driven particle beams has ...

A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and ...

Inside the proton, quarks and gluons shift and morph their properties in ways that physicists are still struggling to understand. Rithya Kunnawalkam Elayavalli brings to the problem a perspective ...

A new perspective on the universe could emerge if superluminal observers, those who theoretically move faster than light, ...

Scientists have come a step closer to understanding how collisionless shock waves -- found throughout the universe -- are able to accelerate particles to extreme speeds.

Theoretical physicists predict the existence of exotic “paraparticles” that defy classification and could have quantum ...

The traditional dark matter hypothesis, that it's some form of cold, massive particle that hardly ever interacts with itself ...

Einstein's photoelectric equation-particle nature of light. Experimental study of photoelectric effect Matter waves-wave nature of particles, de-Broglie relation.

The cores of galaxies may not be made of what scientists thought. New research suggests that they could hold giant […] The ...
