The new baryon “Xi-cc-plus” decays into other particles almost instantly, but its existence could paint a clearer picture on ...

Gravitational waves could be responsible for the production of dark matter during the early phases of our universe's ...

Nearly every object we interact with in our lives has a mass, but where does this mass come from? Modern physics says matter ...

In physics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment in which a cat is trapped in a box with a particle that has a 50-50 ...

Dark matter is some kind of substance that has gravity—it holds galaxies together—yet cannot be directly seen with any ...

A new model suggests dark matter may be more complex than a single substance, potentially reshaping how scientists interpret hidden structures across the universe.

Dark matter could be the result of fermions pushed into a warped fifth dimension. This theory builds on an idea first stated in 1999, but is unique in its findings. Dark matter makes up 75 percent of ...

For decades, scientists have tried and failed to explain how the force that binds the heart of atoms together really works.

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation and their interaction. The fundamental particles are summarised by the standard model. This includes leptons ...

I'm a big believer in pets choosing us, not the other way around. Nearly every dog and cat I've ever rescued or adopted happened because our lives intertwined in ways I didn't see coming, and they've ...
