The ABCs of Particle Physics is available online and at public libraries and stores near Fermilab and SLAC. For lovers of rhymes and anthropomorphic Higgs bosons, Symmetry presents its first published ...

A is of Accelerator, B is for Black hole, C is for Cryostat! Those are just a few of the particle physics lessons your kids will get from Symmetry Magazine’s new lovely, animated alphabet book that ...

Basic science research, by definition, is done to better understand the fundamental nature of the universe. Although there is plenty of evidence that investment in basic research brings longterm ...

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are private, nonprofit institutions that provide expert advice on some of the most pressing challenges facing the nation and world. Our ...

The innovative Celeritas project, led by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, provides a software tool that makes sure simulations used to analyze particles can run on the fastest ...

Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered a new particle in their work on the LHC beauty (LHCb) experiment. The Standard Model of particle physics predicts that particles like ...

Why should anyone in manufacturing care about what is going on at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe? What could experiments in particle physics have to do with manufacturers or citizens in ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. If there's one thing you can count on physicists for, it's to keep an ...

A particle physics student has used his downtime to build a Lego model of the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Nathan Readioff's design uses existing Lego ...

Collaborative experiments focus on uncovering the unusual properties of the ghost particle. In a recent study, physicists have created the clearest and most detailed view so far of how neutrinos shift ...

To say that neutrinos aren’t the easiest particles to study would be a bit of an understatement. Outside of dark matter, there’s not much in particle physics that is as slippery as the elusive “ghost ...
