An analysis of several experiments aimed at detecting the mysterious neutrino has identified a hint of a crack in the ...

A mysterious magnetic property of subatomic particles called muons hints that new fundamental particles may be lurking undiscovered. In a painstakingly precise experiment, muons’ gyrations within a ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

New, precise measurements of already discovered particles are shaking up physics, according to a scientist working at the Large Hadron Collider. By Roger Jones / The Conversation Published May 9, 2022 ...

The Standard Model is an "astoundingly successful" theory in particle physics, detailing the behavior and interactions of 17 fundamental particles (12 fermions and 5 bosons), with thousands of precise ...

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

The Standard Model of Particle Physics has withstood rigorous test after test over many decades, and the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 provided the last observational piece of the puzzle. But ...

The quarks, antiquarks, and gluons of the standard model have a color charge, in addition to all the other properties like mass and electric charge that other particles and antiparticles possess. All ...

The LHCb collaboration is far less famous than CMS or ATLAS, but the particles and antiparticles they produce, containing charm and bottom quarks, holds new physics hints that the other detectors ...

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...
