Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle proposed for decades to explain puzzling neutrino behavior. Their high-precision ...

The joint NOvA-T2K analysis achieved unprecedented precision in measuring neutrino mass, a key step toward understanding ...

Physicists are increasingly entertaining a radical possibility: our familiar universe of three dimensions of space and one of ...

Using muon spin rotation spectroscopy, researchers from Japan and Canada have successfully captured the rapid conversion of ...

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 ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

You can't see, feel, hear, taste or smell them, but tiny particles from space are constantly raining down on us.

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...

Scientists are a step closer to solving one of the universe’s biggest mysteries as new research finds evidence that two of ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...
