Neutrinos are low-mass subatomic particles with zero electric charge that interact with matter only via the weak nuclear force and gravity. This makes neutrinos difficult to detect, despite the fact ...
Three thought experiments involving “demons” have haunted physics for centuries. What should we make of them today?
Irish planetary scientists have christened a spider-like feature on Jupiter's icy moon Europa as "Damhán Alla," which ...
From a particle smasher encircling the moon to an “impossible” laser, five scientists reveal the experiments they would run ...
"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — ...
Columbia professors contributed to new research that seeks to understand an anomaly that has puzzled particle physics for ...
Curiosity, collaboration and a passion for discovering how the universe works have propelled this rising astrophysicist onto ...
Slow earthquakes have been discovered to exhibit anomalously slow, long-lasting, and small slips, adjacent to regular ...
High energy physicists run on a treadmill that keeps speeding up. Their collider experiments smash particles at dazzling speeds and energies. Detectors identify and track the multitudes of smaller ...
You don’t need a lab to explore the wonders of science - just a little curiosity and a few things from around the house. These five easy experiments bring chemistry, physics, and biology to life in ...
An international team of physicists has found a way to “sidestep” the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which posits that it is impossible to measure a particle’s location and momentum simultaneously.
The ALICE Collaboration is a winner of the 2025 Gizmodo Science Fair for transforming lead into gold for a fraction of a second and exposing the strange physics that goes on inside the Large Hadron ...
