A groundbreaking discovery has rocked the field of neutrino astronomy—scientists have detected an ultra-high-energy neutrino using the KM3NeT telescope, with an energy level 16,000 times greater than ...

A long-elusive, hypothetical subatomic particle called the axion can be simulated and potentially detected in a type of thin material.

The Breakthrough Prize Foundation today announced the winners of the 2025 Breakthrough Prizes, honoring scientists driving ...

For Marcela Carena, her life’s work started as a little girl on the Pampas of Argentina, looking up at the Milky Way.. Her ...

Body Dimensions 163.7 x 75.1 x 8.7 mm (6.44 x 2.96 x 0.34 in) ...

As you likely know, there's no one-size-fits-all Social Security benefit. The amount you'll receive will depend on factors such as how much you earned in your working life and the age at which you ...

Microsoft named the chip “Majorana 1” because it consists of Majorana particles, which is a particular type of subatomic particle with unusual properties. One is that a Majorana particle is ...

Among the various forms of protein aggregates, subvisible (~1–100 µm) and submicron (<1 µm) particles are of particular regulatory and clinical concern. Conventional methods for measuring them ...

The research, presented at the spring meeting of the American Chemical Society, suggests that a single piece of chewing gum could introduce as many as 3,000 microplastic particles into the saliva, ...

The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

New research shows that chewing gum can release hundreds or possibly thousands of microplastics into saliva, which may then be absorbed into the body. Even all-natural gum sheds microplastics when ...

Using KM3NeT, a vast underwater neutrino telescope, researchers are watching ghost-like particles that may hold the key to uniting the physics of the very large and the very small. By analyzing how ...
