As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing ...

The amplituhedron, a shape at the heart of particle physics, appears to be deeply connected to the mathematics of paper ...

Scientists propose a bold new dark matter candidate: the superheavy, charged gravitino, detectable in experiments like JUNO ...

Quantum entanglement is one seriously long-distance relationship. Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter ...

The true “informational age” of the cosmos may be 62 billion years, not just the 13.8 billion years of our current expansion.

In this video, we explore the fundamental forces of nature and their interactions with particles, structured as follows: 0:00 ...

LITTLE ROCK (KATV) — Little Rock is tied for number one for the worst year-round particle pollution in the Southeast. According to the American Lung Association’s “State of the Air” report, the Little ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

The amber fossils preserve an impressive array of ancient bugs and plants that scientists are using to piece together a previously unknown Cretaceous ecosystem. reading time 3 minutes For the first ...

For years, physicists have been baffled by the discovery of mysterious “ghost particles”. The scientific name for them is “neutrinos”, which are neutral sub-atomic particles with no electric charge.

Quantum Information Science has made great strides in recent years setting the stage for further dramatic advances in many scientific fields of fundamental importance. This Perspective highlights why ...
