An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

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 ...

A link between particle physics and gravity equations, called the double copy, applies to Hawking radiation, creating a new ...

A major obstacle in calculating the muon’s behavior is the strong force, the most powerful of the four fundamental forces, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak force. It binds quarks ...

What is the Stokes-Einstein Equation? The Stokes-Einstein equation is a fundamental relation in physics that describes the diffusion of spherical particles through a fluid with low Reynolds number. It ...

Programmable optical particle transport based on structured light plays a crucial role in microscale manipulation. Scientists ...

E = mc 2 is probably the most recognized physics equation among the general public, beating out Newton's Second Law of motion, F = ma. Despite that recognition by the outside world, E = mc 2 is hardly ...

Physicists have long sought to describe the universe in terms of equations. Now, S James Gates explains how research on a class of geometric symbols known as adinkras could lead to fresh insights into ...
