No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

The muon mismatch was caused by calculation limits, not a new force. Improved methods bring theory and experiment into close ...

Maybe it has something to do with a certain Russian billionaire's superyacht. Or maybe it's just because they love science.

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the standard model.

Texas A&M University professor Peter McIntyre and his colleagues want to build a particle accelerator around the rim of the Gulf of Mexico in order to discover the most fundamental building blocks of ...

For years, scientists have searched for the sources of the most energetic particles in ...

Most people think the multiverse is just about "what-if" scenarios – other versions of you where you took that job in another city or turned left instead of right. But to a physicist, the multiverse ...

For the past half century or so, a theory known by the understated name of the Standard Model has dominated the field of particle physics. This theory provides us with a detailed description of the 17 ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it. Baryons, composite particles made up of ...

Senior Elizabeth Bednar, this year’s STAR Student at St. Aloysius, plans to study physics at Mississippi State.
