Going to smaller and smaller distance scales reveals more fundamental views of nature, which means if we can understand and describe the smallest scales, we can build our way to an understanding of ...

Physicists have created the heaviest clumps of antimatter particles ever seen. Known as antihyperhydrogen-4, this strange stuff could help us solve some of the most puzzling physics mysteries.

They observe for the first time the decay of baryons, particles that make up the majority of the matter in the observable universe. After the Big Bang, matter and antimatter were created in equal ...

An 11-year-long survey of the particles and antiparticles near our sun is unlocking our solar system’s history – and raising new mysteries about the particles themselves. “It’s like when you walk into ...

The standard model of particle physics includes a veritable 'zoo' of subatomic particles. Visit the Particle Zoo (at http://www.particlezoo.net), and you can order ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. If you want to probe the frontiers of fundamental physics, you have to ...

A complete survey of all the particle and antiparticle activity that goes on during the Sun’s 11-year cycle has found previously unknown ways these particles behave. Cosmic rays coming from outside ...
