After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.

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

Neutrinos are very small, neutral subatomic particles that rarely interact with ordinary matter and are thus sometimes ...

Researchers in the United States’ Fermilab moved the final subdetector for Mu2e into the ...

The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered experimental evidence that particles of matter emerging from energetic subatomic smashups retain a key ...

In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, there are no known sources anywhere in the universe ...

When the universe first burst into being, all of space was a cosmic cauldron filled with a roiling, fiery liquid of ...

In 2023, Earth was struck by a subatomic particle so energetic that, on paper, it should not exist. The neutrino, calculated ...

A new theory suggests the universe’s greatest secrets are hiding in a “zeptouniverse” that’s ready to be explored—without ...
