Scientists have mapped the upper atmosphere of Uranus in detail, revealing a cooler, thinner, and more unevenly charged layer around the planet than expected.

The Standard Model of Particle Physics is the best theory scientists have to explain how the universe works on subatomic ...

It is commonly assumed that tiny particles just go with the flow as they make their way through soil, biological tissue, and other complex materials. But a team of Yale researchers led by Professor ...

Scientists saw a quark plowing through primordial plasma for the first time, offering a rare look at the first moments after ...

Abstract: Accurately estimating the failure state and predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of a system are important for effective predictive maintenance, and the particle filter (PF) method has ...

The era of smashing two watermelons together at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended. After 25 years of accelerating streams of ions into each other at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), ...

After 25 years, Brookhaven National Laboratory’s Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider—the U.S.’s largest particle collider—has ceased operations, but its science lives on ...

(via PBS Space Time) Physicists have long believed that detecting the particle of gravity—the graviton—was fundamentally impossible, with the universe itself seeming to block every direct attempt.

You might think of x-rays as the go-to particle to see through solid objects. But there's a subatomic particle out there that can see through everything from volcanos to lead shielding in nuclear ...

Abstract: In wafer etching, regular cleaning and maintenance of process chambers are necessary to reduce particle contamination of etched wafers during the wafer transfer process. Investigating ...

There’s a new generation of experiments that may unlock the gravity particle. Physicists have long believed that detecting the particle of gravity—the graviton—was fundamentally impossible, with the ...

In 2023, a subatomic particle smashed into the Mediterranean Sea with enough energy to rattle the foundations of physics. The particle was a neutrino, a fundamental subatomic particle that usually ...
