For nearly a hundred years, every known particle in the universe belonged to one of two camps. Bosons, like photons, can ...

Dark matter particles could be mediators of the interaction between electrons and atomic nuclei, as shown by a study ...

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will study nature’s most mysterious particle a mile beneath South Dakota’s Black ...

For nearly a century, every particle in the quantum world has fallen into one of two camps. Bosons, like photons, happily ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

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

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

The muon mismatch was caused by calculation limits, not a new force. Improved methods bring theory and experiment into close ...

ANN ARBOR, Mich.–The results of a high-profile Fermilab physics experiment involving a University of Michigan professor appear to confirm strange 20-year-old findings that poke holes in the standard ...

Breaking the rules is exciting, especially if they have held for a long time. This is true not just in life but also in particle physics. Here the rule I'm thinking of is called “lepton flavor ...

This article explores the intriguing realm of particle physics with Vitrek’s comprehensive document on scattering experiments. Learn how incident particles strike targets, resulting in scattered ...
