Microsoft named the chip “Majorana 1” because it consists of Majorana particles, which is a particular type of subatomic particle with unusual properties. One is that a Majorana particle is ...

During the 1950s, discoveries of new subatomic particles were proliferating so quickly such that scientists spoke of a "particle zoo." Gell-Mann turned his attention to some particles that behaved ...

On July 4, 2012, scientists at the giant atom smashing facility at CERN announced the discovery of a subatomic particle that seems like a tantalizingly close match to the elusive Higgs Boson ...

In 1927, he refined and presented his “Uncertainty Principle”, which essentially states that it is impossible to accurately determine both the position and momentum of a subatomic particle.

The range of subatomic particles and fundamental forces are the cutting edge of modern physics. Nuclear reactions Alpha decay involves the release of a helium nucleus. Beta decay involves the ...
