A revolutionary achievement could pave the way for smaller, more efficient nuclear clocks. Last year, a research team led by UCLA achieved a milestone scientists had pursued for half a century. They s ...

At the world’s most powerful colliders, physicists are finally catching sight of particles that almost never leave a trace, a ...

Before atomic elements came together, less than a second after the Big Bang, if particles condensed into halos of matter, these halos may then have collapsed, creating the first black holes, boson ...

The Simpsons predicted the Higgs boson years before its discovery, blending fundamental physics constants with creative writing from mathematically trained show staff. Barrett Deals Major Blow in ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass ...
