Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

Theoretical particle physics is the development of models for describing fundamental particles and their interactions. This includes testing and refining the prevailing theory: the standard model.

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the ...

A fluctuation in the data from the world's most powerful particle smasher could be a random blip — or a breakthrough that could turn all of physics on its head. The problem is, we don't which it is.

Frank Close tells us about the history of particle physics, and what it means that charge in our universe's matter is so closely balanced. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...
