The Higgs boson has been found. Gravitational waves have also been directly captured. The textbooks from my student days are ...

One theory points to a long-awaited supersymmetric particle called a ‘higgsino.’ But that idea has some issues.

In the early 1930s, scientists were just beginning to discover the extraordinary world hidden inside the atom, which is made up of a dense center, called the nucleus, with electrons orbiting around it ...

Rachel Feltman: Happy Monday, listeners! For Scientific American’s Science Quickly, I’m Rachel Feltman. You’re listening to our weekly science news roundup. Let’s kick things off with some tech news.

Misha Glenny and guests discuss the machines that are described as the world’s largest experiments: Particle Accelerators. A famous example of a Particle Accelerator is the Large Hadron Collider, a ...

Quelles sont les limites de la physique moderne ? Faut-il revoir la théorie de la relativité et de la mécanique quantique ? Seules des expériences peuvent répondre à ces questions, des expériences ...

Machine learning sifted through years of LHC collisions, finding no tiny black holes while tightening limits on exotic physics.

In 2012 the Higgs boson — often called the "God Particle" — was discovered. The Higgs gives mass to fundamental particles; in the Standard Model particles are excitations of fields, and producing a ...

Physicists have detected strong evidence that heavy, fleeting Z bosons can become quantum entangled during Higgs boson decays at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. The result shows that Einstein’s “spooky ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator in the tunnel at CERN. ATLAS finds strong evidence that Z bosons from Higgs decays ...

Following the possible recent detection of a dark matter particle, researchers have already come up with a veritable cornucopia of possible models for what sort of particle it might have been ...
