Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

Hundreds of laid off federal government workers and contractors are finding new hope through a program at Northern Virginia Community College designed to help people retrain for positions in ...

Big science requires long-term planning. In June, the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine published an unprecedented 40-year strategy for US particle physics titled Elementary ...

Louvain-La-Neuve, Belgium, August 20, 2025 – IBA (Ion Beam Applications S.A., EURONEXT), the world leader in particle accelerator technology and the world’s leading provider of proton therapy ...

Carnegie Mellon University's Valentina Dutta is on the lookout for evidence of subatomic particles known as the Higgs boson interacting with each other. Dutta, assistant professor of physics, shared ...

ABSTRACT: The Daya Bay Collaboration has discovered that approximately 6.0% of active neutrinos were missing from the nuclear reaction container. This finding has led to a reinterpretation of the ...

This repository consolidates key derivations, simulations, and predictions regarding the Geometrodynamics of Entropy (GdE) theory. GdE proposes a unification of physics based on a (3+3) spacetime, ...

It is just over a year since Cern, home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), became the base for the three-year pilot phase of the Open Quantum Institute (OQI). The OQI is a multi-stakeholder, global, ...

Quantum computers are beginning to become powerful tools for studying some of the most fundamental forces in the universe – and some of the trickiest to understand. Two experiments have used them to ...

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are private, nonprofit institutions that provide expert advice on some of the most pressing challenges facing the nation and world. Our ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...
