Particles rush through a long tunnel in the Large Hadron Collider. Maximilien Brice/CERN, CC BY-SA When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics ...
Neutrinos are very small, neutral subatomic particles that rarely interact with ordinary matter and are thus sometimes ...
Physicists may have yet another fundamental particle left to discover. When physicists at the Large Hardon Collider discovered the Higgs boson back in 2012, they’d found the last missing piece of the ...
After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.

'Impossible' particle that crashed into Earth with 100,000 times the energy of the LHC may actually be from an exploding black hole
In 2023, a subatomic particle smashed into the Mediterranean Sea with enough energy to rattle the foundations of physics. The ...
WASHINGTON (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 ...
NPR's Ayesha Rascoe speaks to Esra Barlas Yücel, a researcher at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, about Fermilab's most precise measurements of the muon particle's magnetic wobble. It's ...
