NASA’s recent detection of unusual signals emerging from Antarctica’s ice sheet has sparked a flurry of questions among the ...

When grown vertically into aligned arrays, known as nanotube “forests,” they form ideal channels for the corkscrewing laser ...

In modern physics, the Higgs boson is famous for giving particles their mass. But a new study suggests an entirely different ...

The briefing book of the 2026 update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics was published in October. Paris Sphicas ...

Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

A tiny, particle-sized engine that runs at temperatures approaching the innermost core of the Sun could open a window into ...

To say that neutrinos aren’t the easiest particles to study would be a bit of an understatement. Outside of dark matter, there’s not much in particle physics that is as slippery as the elusive “ghost ...

At the turn of the century, it sounded as if string theory could give us big answers about the universe. Well… has it?

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I ...

Physics is this close to understanding the entire universe. And what lives in this gap? Many physicists think it’s the ...

Researchers used IBM’s quantum computers to create scalable quantum circuits that simulate matter under extreme conditions, offering new insight into fundamental forces and the origins of the universe ...
