Explore the debate surrounding a potential dark matter discovery, highlighting skepticism and the need for rigorous ...

Physicists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland said Wednesday that they had discovered a new subatomic particle that looks like the Higgs boson, a potential key to an understanding of why ...

They're tiny, invisible, and travel across the universe. And trillions of them just flew through your body. What are they? Neutrinos ‒ and scientists Wednesday announced the discovery of the most ...

In their search for more flavors of Higgs bosons, a team of researchers at CERN stumbled across what could be evidence of the smallest matter-antimatter particle ever. The hypoethical particle, known ...

The LHC, operating at unprecedented luminosities, has revealed a system of five "glue-like" particles that could help us to fill out a "periodic table" of subatomic particles. Share on Facebook (opens ...

On Nov. 11, 1974, two research teams rocked the particle physics world when they announced they had independently discovered a new subatomic particle – the J/psi. The particle’s existence called for a ...

What is everything made of? It’s the fundamental question that lies at the heart of particle physics. Today, scientists are using gigantic, atom-smashing particle accelerators to probe deeper into the ...
