The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

If you were able to shrink yourself to the size of a subatomic particle, the world would look very different. You’d find yourself floating in what appeared to be outer space, and objects which are ...

The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the baryon class are reported from the LHCb experiment located at the Large ...

New research from the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FermiLab) in Illinois has found that a tiny subatomic particle appears to be disobeying the laws of physics, which could open up a host of ...

Eight decades after one of the weirdest discoveries in the history of science -- that subatomic matter is wavelike -- Austrian scientists are studying the same phenomenon on a much bigger scale, in ...

WASHINGTON — Scientists have found an extra charming new subatomic particle that they hope will help further explain a key force that binds matter together. Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider in ...

A report in April suggesting a giant atom smasher may have detected a never-seen-before subatomic particle had physicists at the edge of their seats with hope, albeit with a healthy dose of skepticism ...

The United States' military has announced it is seeking to create powerful subatomic particle beams that would enable personnel to "see" through walls tens of yards thick and even peer deep ...

A pair of physicists announced the discovery of a subatomic event so powerful that the researchers wondered if it was too dangerous to make public. The explosive event? The duo showed that two tiny ...

For the first time, scientists have found that a bizarre subatomic "quasiparticle," called a skyrmion, that's capable of reproducing itself in an unusual way. A skyrmion is considered a quasiparticle ...

Physicists have announced the observation of a new particle, the Omega-sub-b (Ω b). The particle contains three quarks -- two strange quarks and a bottom quark (s-s-b). It is an exotic relative of the ...
