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

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about ...

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

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

Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

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

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

When observing small worms under a microscope, one might observe something very surprising: the worms appear to make a ...

In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of ...

Think back to middle school algebra, like 2 a + b. Those letters are parameters: Assign them values and you get a result. In ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.
