On February 13, 2023, a single subatomic particle zipped across the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Sicily, triggering thousands of sensors. This neutrino, or“ghost particle,” is the most energetic ...

ABSTRACT: A specific structure of Standard Model (SM) particles is proposed and investigated. According to this proposal, the precursor of an elementary particle is a de Sitter space tangent to ...

Forget about turtles; for all practical purposes, it’s really particles all the way down. Consider the seemingly simple matter of their size, the very thing that makes them so alien. We’re typically ...

Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current ...

The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the baryon class are reported from the LHCb experiment located at the Large ...

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 ...

When studying the quantum phenomena of the world’s smallest particles, sometimes scientists have to break a few things. “This study, for the first time, establishes a direct connection between the ...
