Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in ...

An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

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 ...

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 ...

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

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 ...
