By tracing solar flare gamma rays, scientists gain new insight into particle behavior that shapes space weather forecasts.

In the new paper, the scientists throw further light into the mystery of Majorana physics. For the first time, two well-established techniques were applied simultaneously to the same device. To their ...

Physicists had struggled to explain how quantum mechanics allows two particles to affect each other's behavior. "That these two particles are entangled in a way that, no matter how distant they are ...

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 ...

Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

Exotic subatomic particles called excitons have been trapped and cooled to the point they formed a giant wave of matter, physicists report. Excitons exist in materials called semiconductors, which ...

Decades after it became clear that the visible Universe is built on a framework of dark matter, we still don’t know what dark matter actually is. On large scales, a variety of evidence points toward ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Volcanic ash from the Hayli Gubbi eruption has disrupted operations from India to multiple countries, including the UAE. Authorities in Oman and Saudi Arabia said they are tracking the plume as it ...

The trio won for their experiments with what's known as entanglement -- a mind-boggling phenomenon when two particles behave as one and affect each other, even though they can be at a vast distance to ...
