A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole ...
After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.
Cosmic rays are extremely fast, charged particles that travel through space at nearly the speed of light. The Amaterasu particle was detected in 2021 by the Telescope Array experiment in the U.S. It ...
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered experimental evidence that particles of matter emerging from energetic subatomic smashups retain a key ...
A newly detected gravitational wave, GW250114, is giving scientists their clearest look yet at a black hole collision—and a powerful way to test Einstein’s theory of gravity. Its clarity allowed ...
The field of particle physics is approaching a critical horizon defined by challenges including unprecedented data volumes and detector complexity. Upcoming ...
NASA has debunked a wild conspiracy theory doing the rounds on social media. The bizarre theory claims that on August 12, at exactly 14.33 GMT (9.33 ET), Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds.
Horses can detect fear in humans by smell, becoming more likely to startle and more wary of people who are scared, a new study has found. Researchers collected samples of odor compounds from the ...
A scientist who achieved worldwide fame with the discovery of the so-called ‘God particle’ left a £3.2 million fortune. Professor Peter Higgs was a researcher at the University of Edinburgh when he ...
