MACE is a next-generation experiment designed to catch muonium transforming into its antimatter twin, a process that would ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

Sam Baron receives funding from the Australian Research Council. The Matter of Everything tells the history of physics through experiments. Any book about the history of science for a general audience ...

To learn more about the nature of matter, energy, space, and time, physicists smash high-energy particles together in large accelerator machines, creating sprays of millions of particles per second of ...

An obscure theory of elementary particles proved to be key to China’s re-emergence as a scientific nation after the Cultural Revolution had stalled its development. Robert P Crease finds out more from ...

After a decade-long analysis, a collaboration of physicists has made the most precise measurement of the mass of a key particle – and it may unravel physics as we know it. The new measurement differs ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from crunching physics data in the background to actively proposing new theories and ...

The model we have for understanding the universe’s fundamental particles is a bit like a gearbox: one tiny change to any one single particles’ properties throws off the mechanics of the other ...

Many have wondered why the Chinese-American physicist Chien-Shiung Wu never won a share of the 1957 Nobel Prize for Physics for her experimental verification of parity violation. Mats Larsson and ...
