The last remaining undetected elementary particle predicted by the standard model, the Higgs boson also creates some troubling problems with other quantum mechanical calculations.

A new particle detector has passed a crucial test, demonstrating it's ready to start investigating quark-gluon plasma, the ...

Although our universe may seem stable, having existed for a whopping 13.7 billion years, several experiments suggest that it is at risk – walking on the edge of a very dangerous cliff. And it’s all ...

A new and powerful particle detector just passed a critical test in its goal to decipher the ingredients of the early ...

A new study published in Scientific Reports simulates particle creation in an expanding universe using IBM quantum computers, demonstrating the digital quantum simulation of quantum field theory ...

The elusive Higgs particle has the power to undo physics as we know it. The fact that it hasn't could have big implications about the nature of the universe.

The universe exists because matter and antimatter are not good friends. Is there a scientific reason why the universe exists?

Scientists may have discovered the most powerful particle colliders in the universe — and they're strewn throughout our galaxy just waiting to blow.

A substance called antimatter is at the heart of one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. We know that every particle has an antimatter companion that is virtually identical to itself, but with ...
