CERN, the world’s largest atom smasher, says it has observed three new "exotic particles" while carrying out its third run of collisions. After a three-year pause for maintenance and routine ...

The observation of the particles—a new type of pentaquark and the first duo of tetraquarks—came on a momentous day at CERN, the Geneva lab, which on Tuesday also fired up its Large Hadron ...

Scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered three subatomic particles never seen before as they work to unlock the building blocks of the universe, the European nuclear ...

This effect has been predicted by the Standard Model of physics and observed experimentally in subatomic particles called mesons more than 60 years ago, but never previously observed in baryons ...

A refined measurement for subatomic muons has major implications—if fundamental theories are accurate. Rahul Rao Aug 17, 2023 2:00 PM EDT ...

Amid the many mysteries of quantum physics, subatomic particles don't always follow the rules of the physical world. They can exist in two places at once, pass through solid barriers and even ...

CERN touts new exotic particles as ‘Run 3’ begins Scientists hailed a smooth start to what is expected to be nearly four years of operation Laurent Gillieron/Keystone via AP, file ...

Subatomic particles called muons are born from cosmic rays bombarding the atmosphere. Because muons can penetrate objects, scientists are using them to peek inside volcanoes. This technique ...
