The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...
Three scientists have won the Nobel Prize in physics for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling. The results are just starting to appear in advanced ...
Quantum computing could tackle problems once thought impossible to solve.
Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as ...
The search for dark matter has been largely unsuccessful so far. But now, scientists think they know where to look for it.
Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...
Aaron Lauda has been exploring an area of mathematics that most physicists have seen little use for, wondering if it might have practical applications. In a twist even he didn’t expect, it turns out ...
The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...
STOCKHOLM (AP) — Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enabled the ultra-sensitive ...
