Latest about Particle Physics
World's smallest particle accelerator is 54 million times smaller than the Large Hadron Collider, and it works
Scientists have created the world's first nanophotonic electron accelerator, which speeds negatively charged particles with mini laser pulses and is small enough to fit on a coin.
What is the strong force?
Reference The strong force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. Learn how it fits into the Standard Model of particle physics.
Neutrino map of the galaxy is 1st view of the Milky Way in 'anything other than light'
Scientists at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory have used 60,000 neutrinos to create the first map of the Milky Way made with matter and not light.
Scientists tried to solve the mystery of the helium nucleus — and ended up more confused than ever
Helium is the simplest element in the periodic table with more than one particle in its nucleus, yet state of the art theory and experiments on it don't add up.
Exotic new state of matter discovered by squishing subatomic particles into an ultradense crystal
By shining a strong beam of light through two chemical compounds, scientists discovered a unique new state of matter made of particles called excitons.
Gravity can transform into light, mind-bending physics paper suggests
In the early universe, gravity may have been capable of creating light, a new theoretical paper finds.
Scientists create 'slits in time' in mind-bending physics experiment
Researchers replicated the classic double slit experiment using lasers, but their slits are in time not space.
'Ghostly' neutrinos spotted inside the world's largest particle accelerator for the first time
Signatures of neutrinos, or ghostly particles that rarely interact with others, were tentatively spotted in the Large Hadron Collider in 2021. Now, physicists have confirmed they are real.
