electrons

Scientists aren't yet certain that electrons and their relatives are violating the Standard Model of particle physics, but the evidence is mounting.

The world's most powerful X-ray laser has just created a molecular "black hole" – a molecule with such a strong positive charge that it sucks in electrons from neighboring atoms.

Scientists have created a new state of matter that seems to split electrons.

The mysterious disappearance of electrons in the atmosphere could be caused by meteors burning up in the sky, new research suggests.

Plutonium is a metal, but it won't stick to a magnet, puzzling scientists for decades. Now researchers may have found this "missing magnetism."

Electrons have split personalities depending on how many of them are around, suggests new research that may solve a physics mystery about electrical currents in superconductors.
