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

A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole ...

The National Science Foundation's massive IceCube neutrino detector at the South Pole just got a major new upgrade, which promises to take the search for "ghost particles" to a new level.

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.

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

A surprising and rare particle decay has left scientists puzzled as kaons, particles made up of quarks, are decaying in ways ...

What if the Milky Way’s central “black hole” isn’t a black hole at all? A new model proposes that an ultra-dense dark matter core could mimic its gravitational pull.

Imagine packing up a priceless work of art and sending it to a gallery on the other side of the world. Imagine doing that with no paperwork for the ...

Hypothetical dark matter stars known as "boson stars" could leave telltale ripples across the cosmos, offering researchers a new way to probe the invisible forces shaping the universe. In 2019, a ...

Why did this particle mysteriously disintegrate?

Researchers at the company are trying to understand their A.I. system’s mind—examining its neurons, running it through ...

"We have long treated the Planck scale like a blurry limit," said Kulkarni. "But if you treat space as an information storage medium, geometry dictates a specific packing efficiency. The universe has ...
