Physicists are closing in on a strange, hidden influence that does not fit neatly into the four familiar forces of nature, and the search is reshaping how detectors are built and where they are ...

Physicists have developed a new theory that brings together two major areas of modern quantum physics. The work explains how a single unusual particle ...

Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly incompatible views of how exotic particles behave inside quantum matter. In some ...

Trillions of neutrinos—nearly massless, neutrally charged particles—pass through us every second, but we only acknowledge ...

In a collider ring on Long Island, physicists have turned a long standing thought experiment into hard data, watching new ...

The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...

A high-precision experiment is hunting for a forbidden particle flip that could expose new physics hiding in plain sight.

Scientists have found “strange quarks” that originated as virtual particles that sprang from nothing Quantum physics paints a strange picture of the world, one filled with spooky connections, ...

On 9 July 1925, Heisenberg sent a paper titled ‘Quantum-theoretical re-interpretation of kinematic and mechanical relations’ to Max Born, whom he was assisting at that time, and Born sent the paper to ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, CERN's Large Hadron Collider, scientists have discovered that the trillion-degree hot primordial "soup" that filled the cosmos for mere millionths ...
