A recent study published in Nature combines data from two major experiments - NOvA in the United States and T2K in Japan - to observe with unprecedented precision how neutrinos, particles capable ...
An experiment designed to hunt for ever elusive dark matter has returned some strange and exciting signals. The anomalies are probably not dark matter itself, but could be an indication that we’re on ...
A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept ...
In this 2018 photo made available by CERN, Nikolai Bondar works on the LHCb Muon system at the European Organization for Nuclear Research Large Hadron Collider facility outside of Geneva. Preliminary ...
Scientists have discovered a new way that matter can exist—one that is different from the usual states of solid, liquid, gas or plasma—at the interface of two exotic materials made into a sandwich.
We finally have a demonstration of a quantum effect that was predicted years ago, which is capable of making invisible matter. The process that the MIT researchers witnessed is called Pauli blocking.
On the International Space Station, astronauts are weightless. Atoms are, too. That weightlessness makes it easier to study a weird quantum state of matter known as a Bose-Einstein condensate. Now, ...
Matter is a lush tapestry, woven from a complex assortment of threads. Diverse subatomic particles weave together to fabricate the universe we inhabit. But a century ago, people believed that matter ...
It sounds like science fiction to say there’s invisible, undetectable stuff all around us, and it doesn’t help that it has the spooky name of dark matter. But there’s plenty of evidence that this ...
Ah, yes, the three states of matter: Solids, liquids, and gases. What a simple way to understand our physical world. Of course, if you remember a bit of high school science, you probably recall a ...
AMES, Iowa – It won’t be long before aluminum parts manufactured in Ames are part of a $28 million upgrade to a nuclear physics experiment at a national laboratory in New York. Veronica Canoa Roman, ...
