An international team including scientists from Princeton University has detected subatomic particles deep within the Earth's interior. The discovery could help geologists understand how reactions ...
In a new Nature Physics study, scientists use quantum simulations to study the interaction between subatomic particles.
Which returns us to our original question: what happens when a beam of subatomic particles traveling at nearly the speed of light meets the flesh of the human body?
Physicists working with the LHCb experiment at CERN have proven that a subatomic particle can switch into its antiparticle and back again.
Smashing atoms Most researchers who hunt for new particles use enormous accelerators that smash subatomic particles together at high speed and look at what comes out of the explosion.
Subatomic muon particles' weird wobble might break the laws of physics Something unseen is influencing muons, and the findings could lead to a bigger quantum uproar than the Higgs boson did.
Quantum tunneling is a phenomenon where an atom or a subatomic particle can appear on the opposite side of a barrier that should be impossible for the particle to penetrate.
Strange subatomic particles called muons are acting more strangely than the Standard Model predicts. Which means the basic way physicists think the universe works might be wrong.
CERN, the world's largest atom smasher, has resumed operations after a three-year pause for maintenance and routine checks, observing three new exotic particles.
It's an adventure through inner space! Dan Smith is going subatomic to find the smallest things possible, in your "Moment of Science".
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 ...
Peter Higgs, a British physicist and Nobel Prize winner whose musings on the origins of mass launched a nearly five-decade, multibillion-dollar search for a subatomic particle — later known as ...
