Before the Ancient Romans, it was the Ancient Greeks who colonized Naples, leaving behind traces of life, and death, inside ancient burial chambers, she says. She points a flashlight at a stone-relief ...

A record-breaking investigation, using a particle detector a mile underground in South Dakota, may have revealed new insights about dark matter, the mysterious substance believed to make up most of ...

In 2024, the T2K Collaboration started to collect new neutrino data following several upgrades to the experiment that included new types of detectors. One of these, called SuperFGD, has a mass of ...

Researchers have tested the performance of a new device that boosts particle signals. Device could help facilitate the operation of new particle colliders, such as the Electron-Ion Collider. In ...

Shifting from giant accelerators 26 km (16 miles) across to brain surgery theaters, a particle detector first developed by physicists at CERN is being used by scientists in Germany to treat brain ...

But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...

The first results from the world's largest neutrino detector have just been published, and they reveal the most precise measurements of neutrino parameters yet. After running the detector — the ...

Prototyping is an indispensable step in the development of particle physics experiments like DUNE and projects like PIP-II. When complete, the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, or DUNE, will be ...

UC Davis students have built a demonstration prototype for a dark matter detector and installed it at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, Switzerland. If the demonstration is succesful it could lead to ...

A team including physicists has for the first time detected subatomic particles called neutrinos created by a particle collider, namely at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The discovery promises to ...
