The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...
After years of careful investigation, researchers working on the Micro Booster Neutrino Experiment (MicroBooNE) have determined that a ...
A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, creating a single particle of light that behaves as if it occupies 37 distinct ...
A team of physicists has coaxed a single, photon-like particle into behaving as if it lives in 37 different quantum ...
As well as particle physics, neutrinos touch astroparticle physics, cosmology, astrophysics, nuclear physics and geophysics, ...
UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...
If photons possess more quantum states than expected, it would overhaul our understanding of all particle physics – and now physicists have identified a way to test this radical idea in an experiment.
Purdue University's Vidya Nagaraju and Kingsly Ambrose measure the size and shape distribution of particles on a Malvern Morphologi G3-ID particle shape analyzer at the Agricultural Particulates Lab ...
The universe's matter-antimatter asymmetry, where matter significantly outweighs antimatter despite their theoretically equal creation at the Big Bang, remains a major unsolved problem in physics.
