In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, ...
A physician introduces a provocative theory linking informational overload and evolutionary mismatch to modern disease ...
This kind of ‘magic’ could lead to a computer revolution.
In July 2012, physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe triumphantly announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, the long-sought linchpin of the subatomic world. Interacting with Higgs ...
In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
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 ...
Physicists in Germany have carried out the most accurate measurement to date of the width of the proton. By examining a ...
Quantum materials and superconductors are difficult enough to understand on their own. Unconventional superconductors, which ...
Since 2010, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has been searching for high-energy neutrinos from space. In recent years, it has already provided important insights into the nature of these particles and ...
In some quantum materials, which are materials governed by quantum mechanical effects, interactions between charged particles (i.e., electrons) can prompt the creation of quasiparticles called anyons, ...
Dr. Stefan Schoppmann, a particle physicist at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), has received the ICFA Early Career ...
Many have wondered why the Chinese-American physicist Chien-Shiung Wu never won a share of the 1957 Nobel Prize for Physics for her experimental verification of parity violation. Mats Larsson and ...
