The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

Amid the many mysteries of quantum physics, subatomic particles don't always follow the rules of the physical world. They can exist in two places at once, pass through solid barriers and even ...

STOCKHOLM -- Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enables the ultra-sensitive measurements ...

Smashing subatomic particles together at near-light speeds has long been the best way to understand the universe’s fundamental building blocks. These high-energy collisions, conducted inside massive ...

Strong interactions between subatomic particles like electrons occur when they are at a specific energy level known as the van Hove singularity. These interactions give rise to unusual properties in ...

Quantum physics didn’t set out to explain the mind. It set out to explain matter. And yet, the deeper scientists went into ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

The year was 1900 and Max Planck was a young physicist working on the problem of blackbody radiation. This was an intense area of research because the experimental data—the radiation emitted by ...

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called quantum tunneling that enabled the ultra-sensitive ...

Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be determined by examining the state ...

STOCKHOLM, Sweden ‒ U.S.-based scientists John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis shared the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for "experiments that revealed quantum physics in action," paving the way ...
