Scientists approved a blueprint for the next two decades of particle physics in the U.S. on Friday. It aims to restore American primacy in high energy particle physics.

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

The tried and tested basic law of modern particle physics—what scientists call the Standard Model —enshrines the muon as one of our universe’s fundamental building blocks.

A new measurement of a fundamental particle called the W boson appears to defy the standard model of particle physics, our current understanding of how the basic building blocks of the universe ...

The Higgs boson is one of the 17 elementary particles that make up the Standard Model of particle physics, which is scientists' best theory about the behaviors of the universe's most basic ...

The European Organisation for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, is the world's largest particle physics laboratory.

At the Max Planck–IAS–NTU Center for Particle Physics, Cosmology, and Geometry researchers from Germany, Taiwan, and the ...
