The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

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

STOCKHOLM -- Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enables the ultra-sensitive measurements ...

Stress is a very real factor in the structure of our universe. Not the kind of stress that students experience when taking a test, but rather the physical stresses that affect everyday objects.

The year was 1900 and Max Planck was a young physicist working on the problem of blackbody radiation. This was an intense area of research because the experimental data—the radiation emitted by ...

Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be determined by examining the state ...
