A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle ...

A relatively small detector caught neutrinos from a nuclear reactor using a technique known as coherent scattering ...

It won’t make its way into quantum computers, but it could help us understand why the universe is filled with matter.

Neutrinos are extremely elusive elementary particles. Day and night, 60 billion of them stream from the sun through every ...

Particle physics is the study of the universe at the smallest scale possible — the most elementary particles and forces that, when combined, make up everything.

The sPHENIX particle detector, the newest experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at the U.S. Department of ...

Although she faced discrimination from her mostly male colleagues, she did groundbreaking work that showed experimentalist physicists where and how to look for new particles.

The discovery of the Higgs boson hasn’t led to an explosion of new physics as many predicted. Now, some scientists think that ...

Deep beneath the Swiss-French border, the Large Hadron Collider unleashes staggering amounts of energy and radiation—enough ...

Researchers have discovered perplexing radio signals beneath Antarctic ice, contradicting established particle physics models ...

Particle physics technology can be used to disinfect syringes, bandages, scalpels, stethoscopes and other tools without damaging them. Medical equipment is sent through a series of small particle ...

So particle physics will stall, with only a few people able to work on the hardest calculations. In April, Vermaseren will hold a summit of FORM users to plan for the future.
