Particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles is one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for deviations from ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is “When are you going to find something?” Resisting the temptation to sarcastically ...

Jason Bono was one of the researchers behind a major scientific moment — when tiny particles unexpectedly unraveled one of the most important and successful theories in physics. Bono, who earned his ...

An illustration conveying the idea of a space-based quantum internet, which would seem, like the hypothetical particle of a tachyon, to outpace light. An illustration ...

What exists at the core of a black hole? A research team led by Enrico Rinaldi, a physicist at the University of Michigan, has leveraged quantum computing and machine learning to analyze the quantum ...

What lies at the heart of a black hole has puzzled physicists for decades. Now, a team led by physicist Enrico Rinaldi has taken a bold approach to the mystery. By using quantum computing and machine ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have used computer simulations to model how a composite material reacts to loading. They studied a particle model of a pillar of stiffer ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. Cosmic rays, which are ultra-high energy particles originating from all ...
