For three decades, a riddle has followed neutrinos, the near-weightless particles that stream through Earth by the trillions ...

Neutrinos, though nearly invisible, are among the most numerous matter particles in the universe. The Standard Model ...

Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at ...

The hydrogen atoms of [4Fe-4S] type ferredoxin, one of the electron carriers, have been visualized and both experiments and calculations have revealed the mechanisms that control the redox potential.

Two papers challenged the existence of theorized particles called sterile neutrinos that might account for mysteries like the ...

Physicists using near-absolute-zero detectors have reached unprecedented sensitivity in the hunt for light dark matter. A groundbreaking scientific project known as QROCODILE, led by the University of ...

The KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment has provided fresh insights into sterile neutrinos. Neutrinos ...

Physics experiments have changed the world irrevocably, altering our reality and enabling us to take gigantic leaps in technology. From ancient times to now, here's a look at some of the greatest ...

AMES, Iowa – Mayly Sanchez clicked to a presentation slide showing the telltale track of an electron neutrino racing through the 14,000-ton Far Detector of the NOvA Neutrino Experiment. Since that ...

Nearly a century ago, Ernst Ruska and Max Knoll provided the first demonstration of a microscope that could image specimens using electrons rather than light. The earliest images obtained via this ...

In experiments at the Brookhaven National Lab in the U.S., an international team of physicists has detected the heaviest “anti-nuclei” ever seen. The tiny, short-lived objects are composed of exotic ...
