Scientists still don’t know where ghostly particles called neutrinos originate. A distant galaxy could be a potential source.

New tool finds use where digging is practically or politically impossible in Jerusalem. Some of the ancient history underneath Jerusalem is easily accessible. Pilgrims and tourists can get their feet ...

"We have never observed such a high-energy neutrino before, and if it turns out to come from cosmic accelerators like blazars, it would give us new insight into how these objects can emit particles at ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For decades, every known atomic and nuclear system has relied on at least two fundamental forces working in concert: the strong force binds protons ...

Muons are one of the key subatomic particles for discovering new physics, but tracking them after particle collisions can be difficult and prone to error. A new study ...

Our planet is under a constant bombardment of radiation—from space. Well, maybe it’s not as scary as that makes it seem. “Radiation” is a catchall term astronomers use for forms of light—including ...

Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland have announced that they discovered a new subatomic particle. Roughly four times more massive than a standard proton, this short-lived piece of ...

A new subatomic particle known as the Ξcc⁺ has been discovered at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. This heavy proton-like particle contains two charm quarks and was detected using the upgraded LHCb ...

Physicists just discovered a brand-new particle that appears to be an exotic cousin to the protons and neutrons that make up atoms. Those mundane subatomic particles are made up of even smaller ...

For over a decade, confusion over the size of the proton has held scientists back. Disagreeing measurements of the subatomic particle’s radius meant that scientists couldn’t test one of their key ...
