Exotic spin-dependent interactions represent a promising avenue for probing physics beyond the Standard Model. These interactions, hypothesised to be mediated by new light bosons, couple to the ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

Long-range interactions, characterised by forces that decay with distance slower than the spatial dimensionality, pose unique challenges in statistical mechanics. Their inherent non-extensivity and ...

BERLIN, Germany – January 17, 2026 — Neutrinovoltaic, a Berlin-based research and information platform focused on ...

The radiation environment near Earth remains a challenging topic of study due to its complex dynamics, spanning multiple energy and temporal scales. During ...

The nature of dark matter is largely unknown, but it is thought to have mass, which influences particle interactions in the universe through gravity. Dark matter may not interact much with visible ...

How can the behavior of elementary particles and the structure of the entire universe be described using the same mathematical concepts? This question is at the heart of the recent work by ...

Inside the Large Hadron Collider, protons slam together at nearly the speed of light, creating a brief fireball of quarks and gluons that looks, at first glance, like pure chaos. New work from CERN ...
