Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.

Neutrinos may be nearly invisible, but they play a starring role in the Universe. Long-standing anomalies had hinted at a ...

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

The FLAMINGO super simulation maps the universe from its earliest moments but finds galaxies cluster less than cosmological ...

High-precision measurements from the KATRIN experiment strongly limit the existence of light sterile neutrinos and narrow the search for new physics. Neutrinos are extremely difficult to detect, yet ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional ...

Rapid advances in the kind of problems that quantum computers can tackle suggest that they are closer than ever to becoming ...

A new theory for the origins of dark matter suggests that fast-moving, neutrino-like dark particles could have decoupled from Standard Model particles far earlier than previous theories had suggested.

A postgraduate student from Bangladesh steps into CERN’s vast research ecosystem, navigating cutting-edge physics while confronting the limits of global scientific access ...

Plastics are not inert: they gradually break into fragments over time, forming micro- and then nanoplastics (i.e., particles ...

Nuclear fusion. People on Mars. Artificial general intelligence. These are just some of the advances that could come by the ...
