An international research team including Korean scientists has measured the precise properties of a 'tetraquark,' a particle made of four quarks, for the first time. Quarks are the smallest elementary ...

Smaller than an atom, but majorly important: introducing the quark! Quarks helped make sense of particle physics, and we'll ...

If you want to explain what was and what is, you need particle physics. Because everything we see consists of molecules and atoms, and atoms in turn consist of atomic nuclei and electrons. The atomic ...

Measurements of the properties of exotic particles called all-charm tetraquarks, reported by the CMS Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), are published in Nature this week. The results ...

A mysterious excess of far-ultraviolet light seen across the Milky Way could come from the annihilation of clumpy dark matter ...

A new measurement by CERN’s ATLAS Collaboration has strengthened evidence that the masses of fundamental particles originate through their interaction with the Higgs field. Building on earlier results ...

Scientists suggest a mysterious ultraviolet glow across the Milky Way may come from dark matter nuggets, hinting that the universe’s invisible matter might not be completely dark.

The Helen Edwards Engineering Research Center is designed to act as a collaborative space for scientists and engineers ...

JWST spots a mature early-universe spiral as CERN reveals how light nuclei form in extreme collisions, challenging core ...

A boiling sea of quarks and gluons, including virtual ones—this is how we can imagine the main phase of high-energy proton collisions. It would seem that particles here have significantly more ...

In 2023, the ALICE experiment was ready for their best year yet, until a mysterious signal threatened everything. As the LHC ...
