Astronomers found evidence that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, hinting at a "fundamental breakthrough" that ...
Dark matter seems invisible, but it makes up most matter, and we have evidence that it gives the cosmos its shape. Now ...
Frank Close tells us about the history of particle physics, and what it means that charge in our universe's matter is so closely balanced. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.
UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...
On Wednesday (Sept. 27) morning, an international team of physicists reported a major finding about an elusive form of matter known as antimatter. It appears that antimatter responds to gravity the ...
To unlock the secrets of dark matter, scientists could turn to supermassive black holes and their ability to act as natural superpowered particle colliders. That's according to new research that found ...
Two recent studies by Professor Stefano Profumo at the University of California, Santa Cruz, propose theories that attempt to answer one of the most fundamental open questions in modern physics: What ...
A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and future of particle physics research. Particle physicists have a reputation ...
Physicists at CERN have reported the first observations of matter-antimatter imbalance in a subatomic particle 'baryon', offering clues as to why matter dominates in the universe. Particles of ...
