The NA62 Collaboration has dramatically reduced the uncertainty in its measurement of an extremely rare particle decay, in ...

Restricting a strange class of particles known as anyons to one dimension could force them into adopting one of two new forms, models suggest, hinting at new fundamental interactions in particle ...

The study of the one-in-ten-billion kaon decay allows researchers to stress-test the Standard Model of particle physics.

Kétévi Assamagan describes how US particle physicists are trying to make their field work for people of all genders, ethnicities and backgrounds. This year, thousands of particle physicists thrashed ...

For the past half century or so, a theory known by the understated name of the Standard Model has dominated the field of particle physics. This theory provides us with a detailed description of the 17 ...

As regular readers may know, my background is in chemical engineering. Three basic concepts drive almost everything else in the field: the conservation of mass, energy, and momentum. A vast majority ...

Particle physics is using ever more interdisciplinary means to seek ever more exotic phenomena, Robert P Crease finds, but ...

Particle physics is a branch of physics that studies the elementary constituents of matter and radiation, and the interactions between them. It is also called "high energy physics", because many ...

The field of particle physics is approaching a critical horizon defined by challenges including unprecedented data volumes and detector complexity. Upcoming ...
