Collisions of electron and positron beams created the high-energy environment needed to produce subatomic particles.

For 40 years, a theory called the standard model has predicted everything seen when subatomic particles are smashed together in particle accelerators. For just as long, theorists have dreamed of a ...

However, it does not account for the other three fundamental forces. The Standard Model of particle physics explains the electromagnetic, nuclear strong, and nuclear weak forces. It describes the ...

The authors present the negative results from the ANAIS-112 experiment, which uses the same target and shows strong tension with DAMA/LIBRA The ongoing quest in particle physics to discover ...

Since the launch of the Large Hadron Collider, there has been ongoing research there into Higgs bosons and a search for traces of physics beyond the existing model of elementary particles. Scientists ...

He covers physics and astronomy, among other topics like tech and climate change. He graduated from University College London with a degree in particle physics before training as a journalist.

Accurately modeling particle movement through fluids is crucial in fields ranging from chemical engineering to aerospace. The ...
