Europe's top physics lab CERN launches its newest particle accelerator, billed as a key step towards future experiments that could unlock the universe's greatest mysteries.

Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of California, Los ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

WHETHER you prefer your spaghetti al dente or soothingly soft, it can be difficult to achieve perfection at home. Many of us will have experienced our pasta disintegrating into a beige mush — ...

Explore the engaging Quantum Century exhibition at Nehru Arts and Science College, showcasing transformative technologies and quantum science concepts.

Since Einstein, physicists have found that certain entities can reach superluminal (that means "faster-than-light") speeds and still follow the cosmic rules laid down by special relativity.

Superconductive technologies have long been central to particle physics, but they have also repeatedly moved beyond the ...
