An illustration conveying the idea of a space-based quantum internet, which would seem, like the hypothetical particle of a tachyon, to outpace light. An illustration ...

“Using newer mathematical tools, my colleague and I have demonstrated a new theory that may accurately describe the universe.

Ah, dark matter. Creator of the universe, sculptor of galaxies, great brewer of coffee (probably). There seems to be nothing it can’t do, or isn’t responsible for, but there’s just one problem: Where ...

The Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory near Chicago. If accurate, it’s a sign that the theories forming the foundation of modern particle physics don’t tell the whole story.

In the late 1960s and 1970s, researchers unified these discoveries into a single theoretical framework now known as the Standard Model of particle physics. This theory classifies all known elementary ...

Might the universe we can observe be just half the tale, with a mirror universe moving in reverse through time filling out the narrative? A new and intriguing idea from scientists at the Perimeter ...

The muon’s mysteries continue to leave physicists spellbound. Last year, an experiment suggested that the elementary particle had inexplicably strong magnetism, possibly breaking a decades-long streak ...
