The KM3NeT Collaboration, operating a partially built neutrino detector on the Mediterranean seafloor off the coast of Sicily, has recorded a cosmic neutrino with an estimated energy of about 220 PeV, ...

Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...

Failure is a necessity in scientific research. In my field of particle physics, breakthroughs are often measured in decades.

A blazar is an active galactic nucleus, essentially a galaxy with a supermassive black hole at its heart, devouring ...

Science X is a network of high quality websites with most complete and comprehensive daily coverage of the full sweep of science, technology, and medicine news ...

Forces have mediator particles. Electromagnetism is mediated by the photons, for example. So most of the decay of this excited dark matter particle would be this unknown mediator. The excited state ...

Fermilab's FAST/IOTA accelerator test facility has successfully accelerated and stored its first proton beams.

Learn how a deep-sea detector helped trace the most energetic neutrino ever detected to distant blazars.

When mobile charge carriers, also known as itinerant electrons, interact with the strong exchange magnetic fields associated ...

Three years ago, in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the passage of an "ultra-energetic" cosmic neutrino was observed — the most energetic ever ...

UK-built detector parts from STFC’s Daresbury Laboratory arrive at Fermilab for DUNE, a major international neutrino experiment in particle physics.
