Physicists have found provocative evidence that a subatomic particle behaves in a way that cannot be explained by the prevailing model of how matter works on the smallest scale. If confirmed, the ...

WASHINGTON, Aug 10 (Reuters) - The peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon in a U.S. laboratory experiment is making scientists increasingly suspect they are missing something in their ...

Researchers found for the first time evidence that even microquasars containing a low-mass star are efficient particle accelerators, which leads to a significant impact on the interpretation of the ...
