A study in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics explores how a machine-learning strategy known as transfer ...

The Standard Model of particle physics, which describes the currently known elementary particles, has been in place since the 1970s. Nature can still surprise us, but it typically requires larger or ...

An unexpected behavior in a particle decay seems to disagree with the predictions of the Standard Model, despite its high ...

Mystery no more Artist’s conception of the magnetic moment of the muon – a sub-atomic particle similar to, but heavier than, the electron. More than half a century of measurements of that fundamental ...

Particle physicists have been searching for new fundamental scalar and pseudoscalar bosons because, if discovered, they could reveal physics beyond the Standard Model and help explain mysteries such ...

Astronomers have developed a new way to test one of the central assumptions of modern cosmology — that the universe behaves uniformly on the largest scales. When applying the method to real ...

In 1930, a young physicist named Carl D. Anderson was tasked by his mentor with measuring the energies of cosmic rays—particles arriving at high speed from outer space. Anderson built an improved ...
