The Large Hadron Collider has discovered a new particle, the 80th identified so far by the world's most powerful particle ...

Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...

Scientists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have confirmed the existence of a massless particle, long theorized ...

The hypothetical faster-than-light particle known as the tachyon may marry with the special theory of relativity, according to a team of physicists, making its existence more plausible. Tachyons are a ...

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...

The Theoretical Advanced Study Institute in Elementary Particle Physics (TASI) recently concluded its 40th year, bringing 65 students from around the world to Boulder to delve into the “Frontiers of ...

Physicists working on the LHCb experiment have spotted an elusive and fleeting particle, a heavier and more charming cousin ...

Black holes could be a hologram. In fact, the entire universe could be a hologram. At least, that's one part of the idea behind a recent study published in the journal PRX Quantum. The study is a ...

Ah, dark matter. Creator of the universe, sculptor of galaxies, great brewer of coffee (probably). There seems to be nothing it can’t do, or isn’t responsible for, but there’s just one problem: Where ...

Power functional theory is a new approach that makes it possible to describe precisely the dynamics of many-particle systems over time. Physicists at the University of Bayreuth are among the ...
