Ghost particles' can zoom through you without a trace. Scientists are getting to the bottom of this cosmic mystery ...

Real particles are lumps of energy that can be "seen" or detected by appropriate instruments; this feature is what makes them ...

They're tiny, invisible, and travel across the universe. And trillions of them just flew through your body. What are they? Neutrinos ‒ and scientists Wednesday announced the discovery of the most ...

Boron nitride sensors enable quantum measurements under crushing pressure, redefining high-pressure physics. The quantum ...

Chinese scientists have made a major step in the hunt for elusive subatomic particles called neutrinos. Researchers from ...

An international team including scientists from Princeton University has detected subatomic particles deep within the Earth's interior. The discovery could help geologists understand how reactions ...

According to the laws of physics, matter and antimatter behave the same way and were formed in equal quantities in the Big ...

Physicists working with the LHCb experiment at CERN have proven that a subatomic particle can switch into its antiparticle and back again. The researchers were able to prove this using extremely ...

CERN, the world’s largest atom smasher, says it has observed three new "exotic particles" while carrying out its third run of collisions. After a three-year pause for maintenance and routine checks, ...
