Particle Physics

A new type of chemistry performed at very cold temperatures on very small particles enables quick, precise reactions.

The transparent, chargeless quasiparticle could shed more light on the underlying mechanics of superconductivity

Meet the 'bubbletrons' — theoretical particle accelerators that may have helped build the universe as we know it.

Astronomers have detected high-energy neutrinos coming from within our Milky Way galaxy, potentially opening up an exciting new window of research.

By shining a strong beam of light through two chemical compounds, scientists discovered a unique new state of matter made of particles called excitons.

Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider are closing in on an explanation for why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter.

Dark matter, the invisible material that makes up the vast majority of the universe's mass, may collect itself to form atoms, a new simulation shows.

The early universe may have been such a violent place that space-time itself fractured like a pane of glass, releasing gravitational waves that astronomers say we may have already detected.

Scientists have proposed a way that the universe could stop expanding, ending in a 'Big Crunch' that resets space and time as we know it.
