The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in ...

An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

Physicists are increasingly entertaining a radical possibility: our familiar universe of three dimensions of space and one of ...

Noncommutative geometry offers a radical reformulation of traditional geometrical concepts by replacing the classical notion of a manifold with a noncommutative algebra of coordinates. This approach ...

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

A subatomic particle called the muon is wobbling far more than leading physics models can explain. Its unusual behavior could be evidence of a fifth force of nature or a new dimension. Scientists ...

Deep underground in southern China, there is a 20,000-ton tank of liquid that can detect neutrinos. Named JUNO, the detector's first results are in — and they're very promising. When you purchase ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...
