The shape of light: Scientists reveal image of an individual photon for 1st time ever
Active volcanoes were erupting on the far side of the moon 2.8 billion years ago, the first lunar samples returned from the far side reveal. 1
Cosmic rays could help assess hidden war damage in Ukraine
Energetic particles that arise when cosmic rays hit Earth’s atmosphere could help assess hidden damage to buildings in Ukraine after the war.
'Hawking radiation' may be erasing black holes. Watching it happen could reveal new physics.
Primordial black holes may be exploding throughout the universe. If we can catch them in the act, it could pave the way to new physics, a study suggests.
Quantum Entanglement: Unlocking the mysteries of particle connections
Reference Quantum entanglement states that two particles are connected and affect one another even if those particles are light-years apart.
The W boson caused a particle mystery — but scientists have cracked the case
A puzzling discrepancy in measurements of the mass of the W+ and W– bosons, which are fundamental particles that carry the weak force, has been resolved by the Large Hadron Collider.
Highly precise atomic clocks could soon get even better. Here's how
Superradiant atoms could help us measure time more precisely than ever before, a theory developed with the aid of the great-grandson of the "father of the atom," Niels Bohr.
Why Peter Higgs leaves a massive legacy in the field of physics
On April 8, 2024, Peter Higgs passed away. Pioneering the discovery of the Higgs boson, the mark the theoretical physicist has left on physics is immense.
Opposites attract? Not in new experiment that finds loophole in fundamental rule of physics
Like-charged objects were found to clump together while opposites repelled because of the newly discovered "electrosolvation force."
