Since Einstein, physicists have found that certain entities can reach superluminal (that means "faster-than-light") speeds and still follow the cosmic rules laid down by special relativity.

Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

You can't see, feel, hear, taste or smell them, but tiny particles from space are constantly raining down on us.

"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

They're called ghost particles for a reason. They're everywhere—trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our ...

An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

The joint NOvA-T2K analysis achieved unprecedented precision in measuring neutrino mass, a key step toward understanding ...

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...

At first glance, quantum mechanics might seem strange or even impossible. That’s because our everyday experiences of the laws of physics are very different from how matter and energy behave at the ...
