Physicists at the world’s largest atom collider have observed three new exotic particles as they continue to search for clues about the mysterious forces that bind subatomic particles together, they ...

Stress is a very real factor in the structure of our universe. Not the kind of stress that students experience when taking a test, but rather the physical stresses that affect everyday objects.

You can say the universe has a split personality. Or better said, our physical models of the universe are the ones fractured.

What is everything made of? It’s the fundamental question that lies at the heart of particle physics. Today, scientists are using gigantic, atom-smashing particle accelerators to probe deeper into the ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is in the business of discovering new subatomic particles—and business is good. The team at CERN recently announced the discovery of a new particle, named Ξcc⁺ or Xi-cc ...
