Scientists from around the world are at Brown to discuss what is known, and what needs to be learned, about the long-sought particle discovered a decade ago.

Japanese physicists have revived Kelvin’s old idea of cosmic knots, showing how these tangled fields might explain why matter ...

How did the universe come into being? There are a multitude of theories on this subject. In a Physical Review Letters paper, ...

Understanding how matter reorganizes as its density increases is a central question in particle and condensed-matter physics. Yet in quantum systems governed by strong interactions, finding analytical ...

Scientists have been using complicated, hypothetical particles to explain the Big Bang, but this theory posits that a simpler answer might be better.

Red lines show the disintegration of a B-sub-s into two muons in the CMS camera at the Large Hadron Collider. Yello, green and blue are used to denote particles other than muons. Purdue University ...

Nobel laureate Chen Ning Yang, who spent decades advancing physics in both the U.S. and China, died in Beijing on Saturday at ...

Gori's work helps bridge theory and experiment, deepening understanding of the Higgs boson, the nature of neutrino masses, and the possible particles that make up dark matter ...

For more than half a century, particle physicists have theorized the existence of a “glueball,” a particle made entirely of gluons. While the past few decades have produced some compelling candidates, ...

Physicists are finalizing plans for MATHUSLA, a powerful new addition to CERN's Large Hadron Collider that will detect long-lived particles and potentially open the door to new physics. But while the ...
