Bloch oscillations are periodic oscillations of quantum particles in a repeating energy "landscape" (e.g., a crystal lattice) ...

Neutrino physics remains a pivotal area in the quest to unravel fundamental aspects of particle behaviour and the evolution of the universe. Neutrinos—elusive, nearly massless particles—are known to ...

Researchers in Japan and the US have provided independent confirmation that neutrinos have mass and can oscillate -- or change from one type of neutrino to another. Their results show that ...

Modern nuclear theory predicts that nucleons appear less “squishy” when probed with neutrinos than was previously inferred from experimental data Scientists use the nuclear theory method called ...

The Big Bang created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. So, why is there so much more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Irfu is participating in the preparation of Hyper-Kamiokande, ...

Charming: a neutral charm meson is made from a quark and an antiquark and can exist in superpositions of particle and antiparticle. (Courtesy: iStock/Traffic-Analyzer) The LHCb collaboration at CERN ...

The study showed that different theoretical models significantly affect the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) of black holes and provide various mechanisms for generating QPOs. In one model, the ...

Physicists have developed a novel type of detector that enables the oscillation profile of light waves to be precisely determined. Physicists in the Laboratory for Attosecond Physics at ...
