A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future ...

In a recent experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN produced particles believed to have only existed in the moments following the Big Bang. This remarkable achievement offers valuable ...

The ALICE Collaboration is a winner of the 2025 Gizmodo Science Fair for transforming lead into gold for a fraction of a ...

The researchers recorded a small number of unexplained signals suspected to be lightweight dark matter. A cutting-edge ...

Particles similar to axions, the leading candidate for dark matter that has long eluded detection, may have already been ...

George Smoot , who shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2006 for his studies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), died on 18 September at the age of 80. Smoot’s work on the blackbody form and ...

An extensive search for a hypothetical particle has turned up empty. The sterile neutrino is a proposed subatomic particle that could even be a candidate for the mysterious dark matter, and although ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

Explore how scientists use GaGe digitizers to capture subatomic events, enabling breakthroughs in modern particle physics ...

Want to travel into the future of particle physics, but don’t have that Higgs boson-powered time machine in working order yet? Check out this chart (below), which shows the insanely huge physics ...

ANN ARBOR, Mich.–The results of a high-profile Fermilab physics experiment involving a University of Michigan professor appear to confirm strange 20-year-old findings that poke holes in the standard ...

An underground vat of liquid xenon in Italy may have just detected a new particle, born in the heart of the sun. If that's indeed what happened, it could upend laws of physics that have held fast for ...
