The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

What is everything made of? It’s the fundamental question that lies at the heart of particle physics. Today, scientists are using gigantic, atom-smashing particle accelerators to probe deeper into the ...

Physicist Richard Feynman invented them to describe the interactions between real particles. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. This ...

Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enabled the ultra-sensitive measurements achieved by ...

Anomalous radio signals detected in Antarctica by the ANITA experiment were coming upward from Earth rather than down from the sky. Researchers used digital and mathematical simulations to test ...

It’s the rarest particle decay ever discovered. Scientists have clinched the case for a special type of decay of subatomic particles called kaons. Further study of the rare decay could reveal a ...

Bengaluru: The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to three American scientists for a series of experiments conducted in the 1980s on quantum mechanics. They experimentally showed that ...

Dipangkar Dutta receives funding from US Dept. of Energy and NSF. A clever mathematical tool known as virtual particles unlocks the strange and mysterious inner workings of subatomic particles. What ...

Harald Fox receives funding from UKRI. Peter Higgs, who gave his name to the subatomic particle known as the Higgs boson, has died aged 94. He was always a modest man, especially when considering that ...
