But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...
Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle ...
The LHCb experiment finds intriguing anomalies in the way some particles decay. If confirmed, these would be a sign of new physics phenomena not predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics.
One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...
In an article published in 2002 in the journal Physics Letters B, my Ph.D. student Maurizio Piai (now Professor of Physics at Swansea University, Swansea, UK) and I proposed an experiment with reactor ...
Neutrino physics remains a pivotal area in the quest to unravel fundamental aspects of particle behaviour and the evolution of the universe. Neutrinos—elusive, nearly massless particles—are known to ...
On 7 November 2025, the Austrian Academy of Sciences inaugurated the Marietta Blau Institute for Particle Physics.
As well as particle physics, neutrinos touch astroparticle physics, cosmology, astrophysics, nuclear physics and geophysics, ...
The University of Liverpool’s experimental particle physics group has secured £5.9 million in funding from the Science and ...
This article explores the intriguing realm of particle physics with Vitrek’s comprehensive document on scattering experiments. Learn how incident particles strike targets, resulting in scattered ...
Researechers are testing superconducting microwire single-photon detectors (SMSPDs) for use in future particle physics exepriments. The detectors, which were designed and fabricated at JPL and ...
