The experiment's third and final result, based on the last three years of data, is in perfect agreement with previous results ...
NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, funded by the US National Science Foundation and US Department of Energy's Office of ...
With big outstanding questions and little hints of new physics, physicists are now rethinking some of their most fundamental ...
Symmetry receives funding through the US Department of Energy.
The LHCb experiment at CERN has revealed a fundamental asymmetry in the behavior of particles called baryons. “The reason why it took longer to observe CP violation in baryons than in mesons is down ...
Neutrinos don’t seem to get their mass in the same way as other particles in the Standard Model. In 1998, researchers made a discovery that challenged their understanding of particle physics and ...
The fundamental particle of light is both ordinary and full of surprises. What physicists refer to as photons, other people might just call light. As quanta of light, photons are the smallest possible ...
Although scientists have yet to find the spooky stuff, they aren’t completely in the dark. There are a lot of things scientists don’t know about dark matter: Can we catch it in a detector? Can we make ...
Documenting the work of building the world’s largest neutrino experiment presents photographers with a unique set of challenges. Discussing her decades-spanning career, photographer Annie Leibovitz ...
Learn about the Standard Model of particle physics and how physicists use it to predict the (subatomic) future. In ancient times, Greeks interested in forecasting the future would voyage on the ...
