After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

Researchers from TUM, working at CERN, have made a groundbreaking discovery that reveals how deuterons are formed. Another long-standing question in particle physics has been answered. Scientists ...

Star clusters are of great importance in any galaxy: they are the birthplace of new stars, often containing massive stars of ...

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation and their interaction. The fundamental particles are summarised by the standard model. This includes leptons ...

"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — ...

Two papers challenged the existence of theorized particles called sterile neutrinos that might account for mysteries like the ...

Three thought experiments involving “demons” have haunted physics for centuries. What should we make of them today?

Physicists spotted a “terribly exciting” new black hole, doubled down on weakening dark energy, and debated the meaning of ...

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: ...

Ninety million times a year, when protons crash together at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), they produce, in their wreckage, a top quark and an anti-top quark, the heaviest known elementary particles ...
