Researchers at Switzerland's Paul Scherrer Institute have experimentally investigated passive cooling systems for small ...

Muons are a key subatomic particle in the discovery of new physics, but after particle collision, they’re difficult to track.

New calculations suggest the muon anomaly may be resolved, reinforcing confidence in the Standard Model of particle physics.

"First predicted by Askaryan in 1962, this radiation has its origin in the netnegative charge generated in the moving shower front as Compton, Bhabha, and Møller scattering draws electrons from the ...

Although our Universe appears to be stable, it might just be in a temporary state of false calm that could rupture in the blink of an eye.

Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we might be closing in on signs of undiscovered physics. If confirmed, these ...

Subatomic particles, gravity wells and the beginning of the universe – these are difficult and mysterious concepts that are better understood with storytelling and metaphor. That's exactly theoretical ...

A pair of rare particles produced in high-energy proton collisions may be the clearest evidence yet that mass can emerge from empty space. The finding could shed light on one of the biggest puzzles in ...

Our planet is under a constant bombardment of radiation—from space. Well, maybe it’s not as scary as that makes it seem. “Radiation” is a catchall term astronomers use for forms of light—including ...

Protein-based medicines are increasingly prevalent as a crucial category of contemporary therapeutics. The presence of subvisible particles (SbVPs) in these pharmaceuticals is a critical quality ...

We may never beam ourselves off the planet. But quantum teleportation is poised to bring about a new era of computing—and revolutionize our understanding of the subatomic world. This composite photo ...
