FREE! Earth is being hammered by the most powerful cosmic particles ever detected, according to new findings from a telescope ...

Out of the limelight, theoretical physicists continue to seek a mathematical model that can explain the universe's particles ...

Our understanding of how the physical world works – from the tiniest subatomic particle to the largest galaxy cluster – has advanced rapidly in recent decades. As The Infinite Monkey Cage ...

It involves a subatomic particle called a Muon. It's kind of like an electron, but 200 times heavier. Until now, the standard model, or blueprint for the 17 fundamental particles of the universe ...

In physical sciences, subatomic particles can be composite particles, such as the neutron and proton, or elementary particles. Based on the standard model, elementary particles are not made of other ...

They maintained that the Standard Model of Particle Physics is used to make very accurate predictions about how subatomic particles interact and decay. "However, there are gaps in the Standard ...

The most likely explanation is that there may be another force of nature at play but another hypothesis is that it could also be the work of another undiscovered subatomic particle like leptoquark ...

On July 4, 2012, scientists at the giant atom smashing facility at CERN announced the discovery of a subatomic particle that seems like a tantalizingly close match to the elusive Higgs Boson ...

But what makes up a carbon atom—or any other atom? The first subatomic particle to be identified was the electron, in 1898. Ten years later, the British physicist Ernest Rutherford discovered ...
