"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

NASA’s Hubble has examined Cloud-9, a strange object with no stars that offers clues about early galaxy formation and dark ...

A deeply disturbing and controversial line of thinking has emerged within the physics community. It's the idea that we are reaching the absolute limit of what we can understand about the world around ...

It is this: when many individual entities come together, the result is not merely the sum of their parts. In the language of ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

The CosmicWatch device costs only $100 to make, making it accessible for both high school students and spacecraft operators.

The subatomic particles are incredibly numerous. About 1,000 neutrinos from stars other than the sun pass through a thumbnail every second.

Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The challenge: the process seemed random and notoriously difficult to predict.

They're called ghost particles for a reason. They're everywhere—trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our ...
