Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same ...

Muons tend to scatter more from high-atomic-number materials, so the technique is particularly sensitive to the presence of materials such as uranium. As a result, it has been used to create systems ...

New optical modules have now been added to the IceCube Observatory, allowing it to measure lower-energy neutrinos as well.

Something odd is happening deep inside the data streams from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. A set of “forbidden” patterns in ...

Scott South Pole Station has been delivering groundbreaking measurements of high-energy cosmic neutrinos. It consists of many detectors embedded in a volume of Antarctic ice measuring approximately ...

A portable detector the size of a cookie box reveals in real time the cosmic particles that pass through your body every ...

The Mu2e experiment reached an important milestone as the collaboration moved a key component of the experiment, called the ...

Imagine being able to see through walls of steel and concrete without cutting, drilling, or opening a single door. For decades, this has been the dream of scientists and security experts tasked with ...

New peer-reviewed research suggests Apple Watch could play a much bigger role in spotting atrial fibrillation. In a real-world study, researchers found that smartwatch-based monitoring caught far more ...

Abstract: Imaging methods based on the scattering of atmospheric muons use the natural flux of muons produced in the atmosphere. Muon tomography (MT) has emerged as a promising technology in various ...

Altermagnets are a newly recognized class of antiferromagnets whose magnetic structure behaves very differently from what is found in conventional systems. In conventional antiferromagnets, the ...
