Physicists using near-absolute-zero detectors have reached unprecedented sensitivity in the hunt for light dark matter. A ...

Deep underground in southern China, there is a 20,000-ton tank of liquid that can detect neutrinos. Named JUNO, the ...

UChicago physics Prof. Bonnie Fleming, who is also the chief research officer at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, is ...

Baryons, composite particles made up of three quarks bound together via the so-called strong force, make up the most visible matter and have thus been the focus of numerous physics studies. Studying ...

ORNL's Celeritas software accelerates particle interaction simulations using GPUs for high-energy physics research.

Energy that would normally go to waste inside powerful particle accelerators could be used to create valuable medical ...

Scientists have produced the firmest evidence yet of so-called sterile neutrinos, mysterious particles that pass through matter without interacting with it at all. The first hints these elusive ...

A doctoral student travels to Washington to explain the enigma of neutrinos, particles that are as strange as they are ...

An extensive search for a hypothetical particle has turned up empty. The sterile neutrino is a proposed subatomic particle that could even be a candidate for the mysterious dark matter, and although ...

Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...

This article explores the intriguing realm of particle physics with Vitrek’s comprehensive document on scattering experiments. Learn how incident particles strike targets, resulting in scattered ...
