Jefferson Lab’s search for smaller-than-an-atom bits of matter that nobody has spotted but that theory says exist is getting some help with crunching through the reams of data its GlueX detector has ...
Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as ...
Physicists at the world’s largest atom collider have observed three new exotic particles as they continue to search for clues about the mysterious forces that bind subatomic particles together, they ...
The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions with matter.
Physicists may have yet another fundamental particle left to discover. When physicists at the Large Hardon Collider discovered the Higgs boson back in 2012, they’d found the last missing piece of the ...
Scientists have discovered a common thread between the monstrous black holes that lurk at the hearts of galaxies and subatomic glass condensates created in collisions of atomic nuclei. When you ...
WASHINGTON, Aug 10 (Reuters) - The peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon in a U.S. laboratory experiment is making scientists increasingly suspect they are missing something in their ...
