Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider kicked off its final year of operations this week, marking a quarter century of discoveries in particle physics.
The staggeringly energetic neutrino likely came from beyond our galaxy, and physicists have two main suspects.
A unique property of quantum systems is on display in one of the LHC's standard particle production methods.
M87 was the first black hole to be imaged, and now it's revealing details of how some elementary particles are accelerated by the universe's most extreme environments.
Axions—a popular dark matter candidate—may be floating around dense stellar remnants in a haze, and even be detectable to some telescopes.
Physicists have detected the heaviest antimatter atoms, bolstering antimatter theories and the search for dark matter.
The unusually large Muon has threatened the Standard Model for decades, but new data parks the particle inside the cozy confines of established physics.
Tachyons are a hypothetical particle generally thought to be incongruous with Einstein's theory.
The result from CERN confirms expectations, but it's the first time gravity’s effect on the stuff has actually been tested.
Does the W boson break the Standard Model? Depends on how you measure it.
Collisions at CERN suggest the enigmatic antimatter particles can persevere in interstellar space.
Physicists are stoked about the possibilities of LUX-ZEPLIN, an underground experiment in South Dakota.
A pentaquark and two tetraquarks are the latest subatomic particles observed by the LHCb Collaboration.
We asked physicists to predict the discoveries that will blow our minds in the coming years.
The newly upgraded particle collider just shot protons to higher energies than ever before.
An elementary particle is way bigger than expected, putting it at odds with the Standard Model.
The CERN Council condemned the invasion and said there would be no new collaborations with the Russian scientific community.
X (3872) is a short-lived particle that was recently resurrected in Switzerland.
Researchers are hoping to "hear" dark matter particles using a super-cooled experiment in California.
The detection represents a "significant breakthrough"—and proves the value of an upcoming experiment.
