The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

Physicists are rethinking how to detect elusive particles like neutrinos by combining existing technologies in unconventional ...

A major physics experiment has uncovered evidence for a strange new form of matter, where a fleeting particle gets trapped ...

In three-dimensional particle physics, elementary particles divide nicely into fermions and bosons. But in lower-dimensions, things aren’t so clear cut. These dimensions host a “third kingdom” of ...

Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover entirely new laws of nature. By ...

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the ...

A major obstacle in calculating the muon’s behavior is the strong force, the most powerful of the four fundamental forces, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak force. It binds quarks ...

Some innovations in physics come from entirely new technologies, others from fresh theoretical insights. Others still take ...

A tiny discrepancy in particle physics has loomed for decades as an exciting possible crack in one of science's most ...

Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we ...

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...
