New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: ...

Why do neutrinos, these elementary particles, sometimes seem to act in such a puzzling way? For decades, physicists have been ...

For more than a century, gravity and quantum physics have stubbornly resisted a common language, one describing the smooth ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

Jason Bono was one of the researchers behind a major scientific moment — when tiny particles unexpectedly unraveled one of the most important and successful theories in physics. Bono, who earned his ...

Physicists have measured an extremely rare particle decay inside the world's largest atom smasher — a discovery that bolsters the leading model of particle physics and leaves little room for ...
