Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

Two papers challenged the existence of theorized particles called sterile neutrinos that might account for mysteries like the ...

"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — ...

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...

Neutrinos – you may have heard of them referred to as "ghost particles" – pass through everything because they are extremely ...

Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in ...

Scientists hunted dark matter and solar neutrinos with one of the largest experiments yet. While the neutrinos likely ...

Dark matter is special in that it doesn't emit, absorb or interact with light, so science had to find a more creative way to ...

A new study reveals that Srinivasa Ramanujan’s century-old formulas for calculating pi unexpectedly emerge within modern theories of critical phenomena, turbulence, and black holes. In school, many of ...

X-ray study of compressed water shows that superionic ice adopts mixed close-packed structures rather than a single phase - a far more complex behaviour than expected, mirroring solid ice’s rich ...

Applied physics is the study of physics for a practical purpose, as opposed to physics motived solely for an improved fundamental understanding. This includes technological advances such as the ...
