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 ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

The Large Hadron Collider has discovered a new particle, the 80th identified so far by the world's most powerful particle ...

Particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles is one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for deviations from ...

The Theoretical Advanced Study Institute in Elementary Particle Physics (TASI) recently concluded its 40th year, bringing 65 students from around the world to Boulder to delve into the “Frontiers of ...

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 ...

The LHCb collaboration at CERN has confirmed the observation of an ultra-rare particle decay that has puzzled physicists for ...

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 ...

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...

Dr. Randolf Pohl from the Institute for Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), have successfully conducted experiments on hydrogen atoms which allow testing of the Standard Model of ...
