A physician introduces a provocative theory linking informational overload and evolutionary mismatch to modern disease ...

In our 3D space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, that distinction ...

In some quantum materials, which are materials governed by quantum mechanical effects, interactions between charged particles (i.e., electrons) can prompt the creation of quasiparticles called anyons, ...

Scott South Pole Station has been delivering groundbreaking measurements of high-energy cosmic neutrinos. It consists of many detectors embedded in a volume of Antarctic ice measuring approximately ...

Since 2010, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has been searching for high-energy neutrinos from space. In recent years, it has already provided important insights into the nature of these particles and ...

(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 11 - The funeral of scientist Antonino Zichichi, scheduled for Friday, February 13, at 4:00 PM in the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri, in Piazza della Repubblica, ...

Dr. Stefan Schoppmann, a particle physicist at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), has received the ICFA Early Career ...

They slip through your skin, your walls, and the whole Earth without leaving a mark. Neutrinos earn the nickname “ghost ...

Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and the University of Oklahoma have pinpointed a one-dimensional system where such particles can exist and have examined their ...

In 1930, a young physicist named Carl D. Anderson was tasked by his mentor with measuring the energies of cosmic rays—particles arriving at high speed from outer space.

The electrodes are coated with carbon nanotubes. As they flow through the reactor, the reactants interact weakly with the carbon nanotubes, exposing them to the electric field. This induces electronic ...

In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
