For three decades, a riddle has followed neutrinos, the near-weightless particles that stream through Earth by the trillions each second. They change identities as they fly, shifting among three known ...
Taylor Observatory and Norton Planetarium offers cosmic educational events from the Earth and beyond for all ages.
Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...
Physicists have long suspected that gravity might have a hidden quantum side, but for decades the idea has been more ...
Two papers challenged the existence of theorized particles called sterile neutrinos that might account for mysteries like the ...
It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...
For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum ...
Physicists have demonstrated with unprecedented accuracy that the speed of light remains constant. In 1887, a landmark physics experiment was carried out by American researchers Michelson and Morley.
At the end of the 1600s, Newton proposed the universal law of gravitation: that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force (F) determined by their masses (M) and the ...
When scientists first sent microscopic worms into orbit in 2018, they hoped to answer a question that has shaped every discussion about long missions. What really happens to your body when gravity no ...
