Deep underground in southern China, there is a 20,000-ton tank of liquid that can detect neutrinos. Named JUNO, the detector's first results are in — and they're very promising.

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: ...

A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden ...

Noncommutative geometry offers a radical reformulation of traditional geometrical concepts by replacing the classical notion of a manifold with a noncommutative algebra of coordinates. This approach ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

Red lines show the disintegration of a B-sub-s into two muons in the CMS camera at the Large Hadron Collider. Yello, green and blue are used to denote particles other than muons. Purdue University ...

Physicists have taken one small-but-consequential step toward measuring the mass of an elusive "ghost particle" called a neutrino — an achievement that could poke a significant hole in the Standard ...

"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — ...

On Monday, the Society of Physics Students, or SPS, welcomed Helen Quinn — a renowned particle physicist — to deliver the Howard L. Schultz Sr. Price Lecture. During the talk, Quinn spoke on her ...

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...
