Classical physics taught that light waves pass through each other unaffected, but quantum mechanics couldn’t resist the ...

The discovery of the Higgs boson hasn’t led to a explosion of new physics. Now, some scientists think that hidden physics may ...

Physicists have discovered that when beams of light interact at the quantum level, they can generate ghost-like particles ...

A team of young scientists paused their new physics searches to develop an innovative machine-learning tool, which is now ...

The magnetic moment of the muon—a tiny property of a tiny particle—has long puzzled physicists. Experiments and theory haven’t quite matched up, leaving open the thrilling possibility of discovering ...

But even as the Standard Model was emerging in the 1960s, theorists recognized that something else was needed to explain many of its features, including why some particles have mass while others ...

“The level of control the authors have achieved over an individual antimatter particle is unprecedented,” says Dmitry Budker, ...

Physicists would dearly love to find new particles, but there's no sign of them in colliders like the LHC. Now we have found ...

A spectacular signature of Physics Beyond the Standard Model would be the observation of a particle with different quantum numbers than the ones allowed for Standard Model particles: for instance a ...

Neutrinos, ghostly particles barely interacting with matter, may secretly be reshaping the fates of massive stars. New ...
