The geometry of space, where physical laws unfold, may also hold answers to some of the deepest questions in fundamental ...

The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detect rare events on a daily basis, but some are exceptionally rare, such ...

Every year in October our UCSB Physics faculty present an explanation of the Nobel Prize in Physics for that year.

Scientists from around the world are at Brown to discuss what is known, and what needs to be learned, about the long-sought particle discovered a decade ago.

Nobel Committee Secretary General Thomas Perlmann addresses journalists in front of a screen displaying the portraits of (L-R) Mary E Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi during a press ...

The Nobel Prizes are arguably the world’s most prestigious recognition anyone can receive for their work in the sciences, medicine, literature, or for world peace. For most winners, getting the call ...

Researchers have discovered an unusual "quantum echo" in superconducting materials, dubbed the Higgs echo. This phenomenon arises from the interplay between Higgs modes and quasiparticles, producing ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing them into tiny targets. Particle accelerators, also known as particle ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass ...

The 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN’s LHC confirmed the Standard Model, revealing how particles gain mass. Brian Cox helped popularize its significance, inspiring public interest in particle ...
