Neutrinos are a type of subatomic particle. They don’t have an electric charge, have a small mass, and are left-handed (a physics term meaning the direction of its spin is opposite to the direction of ...

Physicists at the world's largest particle accelerator have made a first-of-its-kind discovery about antimatter that could help solve one of the universe's biggest mysteries. The discovery — made at ...

Physicists soon will be closer than ever to answering fundamental questions about the origins of the universe by learning more about its tiniest particles. University of Cincinnati Professor Alexandre ...

For years, physicists have been baffled by the discovery of mysterious “ghost particles”. The scientific name for them is “neutrinos”, which are neutral sub-atomic particles with no electric charge.

On the Swiss–French border, at the headquarters of the European laboratory CERN, a battle is under way for the future of particle physics. CERN’s leaders want to build the biggest machine on the ...

Physicists have, for the first time, seen a matter particle from the proton family behave in a fundamentally different way from its antimatter twin. The finding — which fits with behaviours predicted ...
