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 ...

A clever mathematical tool known as virtual particles unlocks the strange and mysterious inner workings of subatomic ...

Almost anything is possible — at least for a subatomic particle. One of the many mystifying consequences of quantum mechanics — the rules that govern the behavior of tiny subatomic particles — is that ...

The quantum world is a pretty wild one, where the seemingly impossible happens all the time: Teensy objects separated by miles are tied to one another, and particles can even be in two places at once.

A team of scientists in Hungary recently published a paper that hints at the existence of a previously unknown subatomic particle. The team first reported finding traces of the particle in 2016, and ...

BERLIN, July 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Often doubted and even ridiculed as "ghost particles" in the past, neutrinos are now finally starting to come into the view of the public eye. Recently the ...

English professor lands $400K National Science Foundation grant to improve learning in humanities and science.

Predicting the properties of subatomic particles before their experimental discovery has been a big challenge for physicists. Predicting the properties of subatomic particles before their experimental ...

Of all the subatomic particles that have any mass at all, the neutrino is the lightest by far. In comparison, the electron, itself a quantum featherweight, has a mass that is at least 500,000 times ...
