In this video, we explore the Standard Model of particle physics, detailing the quantum field theories that describe ...

In recent years, a group of Hungarian researchers have made headlines with a bold claim. They say they’ve discovered a new particle — dubbed X17 — that requires the existence of a fifth force of ...

A lot of times, when you’re pushing science to the absolute limits, you want an experiment to have one of two results. First, you want to see a positive result—something that confirms your models and ...

Gross awarded $3 million “for a lifetime of groundbreaking contributions to theoretical physics, from the strong force to ...

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

Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we might be closing in on signs of undiscovered physics. If confirmed, these ...
