Physicists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have uncovered new hints that certain particle decays may not behave as the ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

For the past half century or so, a theory known by the understated name of the Standard Model has dominated the field of particle physics. This theory provides us with a detailed description of the 17 ...

A tiny discrepancy in particle physics has loomed for decades as an exciting possible crack in one of science’s most ...

The muon mismatch was caused by calculation limits, not a new force. Improved methods bring theory and experiment into close ...

Researchers have developed a novel high-energy particle detection instrumentation approach that leverages the power of quantum sensors -- devices capable of precisely detecting single particles. To ...

Particle physics has revolutionized the way we look at the universe. Along the way, it’s made significant impacts on other fields of science, improved daily life for people around the world and ...
