Something genuinely strange has just happened in fundamental physics: an underground neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean ...

Before the RHIC shut down, it was the only operational particle collider in the U.S. and one of two heavy-ion colliders in the world, the other being the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.

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

The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...

In 1930, a young physicist named Carl D. Anderson was tasked by his mentor with measuring the energies of cosmic ...

MicroBooNE's results show no evidence for sterile neutrinos, strengthening support for the standard three-flavor neutrino ...

Before telescopes, ancient Greek astronomers relied on naked-eye observations of the night sky to understand the universe around them. The meticulous star catalog belonging to one of the best of these ...

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 ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle proposed for decades to explain puzzling neutrino behavior. Their high-precision ...

Applications are now open for the 2026 Future of Work Accelerator. Eligible U.S.-based organizations are invited to apply by February 6, 2026. The Accelerator is a joint program of HP and the HP ...

Particle accelerators, like the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva, Switzerland, allow scientists to study the most fundamental particles, but they operate on a massive scale. The tunnel that houses ...
