Astronomers found evidence that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, hinting at a "fundamental breakthrough" that challenges our understanding of how the universe evolved.

But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...

BERLIN, Germany – January 17, 2026 — Neutrinovoltaic, a Berlin-based research and information platform focused on ...

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I have found in a new research project. The way that intense X-rays are ...

An obscure theory of elementary particles proved to be key to China’s re-emergence as a scientific nation after the Cultural ...

A team of physicists has coaxed a single, photon-like particle into behaving as if it lives in 37 different quantum ...

Particle accelerators smash tiny particles together to reveal the universe's building blocks. These machines have grown dramatically in size and power over time, leading to major discoveries. The ...

"When my student showed me the data I thought she must be wrong," Boston College professor and lead researcher Kenneth Burch told Live Science. "It's not every day you find a new particle sitting on ...

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...

Picture a particle physicist. What do they look like as they do their research? There's a certain popular image of what a scientist looks like while they make their discoveries, according to Dr.

China’s decision to halt work on what was meant to be the world’s largest particle accelerator marked a sharp turn in the global race to probe the Higgs boson and the fabric of the universe. The ...
