For the first time, astronomers have captured clear, detailed images of two stars explosions just days after their eruption.
A joint effort between two of the world’s largest neutrino experiments has brought scientists closer to understanding how the ...
A new joint analysis from the NOvA and T2K experiments offers the most precise look yet at neutrino behavior, bringing ...
NOVA is excited to introduce a new pilot web video series devoted to asking and answering mind-blowing physics questions, big and small. In the coming weeks, keep an eye on the Receive emails about ...
A study of the X-rays emitted in the aftermath of a recent nova explosion is set to improve astronomers’ sketchy understanding of these violent but frequent events. Margarita Hernanz and Glòria Sala ...
Antineutrino search: the NOvA detector in northern Minnesota. (Courtesy: Fermilab/Reidar Hahn) The best evidence yet that muon antineutrinos can change into electron antineutrinos has been found by ...
The Universe should not exist. At least, not according to simple physics. After the Big Bang, equal parts matter and ...
MIT physicist Alan Guth made a profound insight into the very first moments of the universe more than three decades ago, when he was just a junior scientist. Working late into the night, he came up ...
The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.
In a way physics has departed from our everyday understanding of what time is. For us nothing is more important than the finitude of time, than the fact that we're mortal. We don't see time as ...
