An unexpected behavior in a particle decay seems to disagree with the predictions of the Standard Model, despite its high ...

Scientists working at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider may be seeing the strongest hints yet of physics beyond the Standard Model — the decades-old theory that explains the fundamental particles and ...

Over the past decade or so, foundation models have emerged as the dominant paradigm for interacting with language, images, ...

Physicists know that their elegant theoretical description of forces and particles — the standard model of particle physics — must be incomplete, because there are a host of phenomena it cannot ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...

Scientists made headlines last week for supposedly generating a wormhole. The research, reported in Nature, involves the use of a quantum computer to simulate a wormhole in a simplified model of ...

Mystery no more Artist’s conception of the magnetic moment of the muon – a sub-atomic particle similar to, but heavier than, ...

The Muon g-2 Collaboration has doubled the precision of their 2021 measurement of the muon’s magnetic moment and it disagrees with the predictions based on the standard model of physics. Muons are ...

The largest-ever survey of physicists from around the world—released today—shows a distinct lack of consensus across many of physics's most important questions, from the nature of black holes and dark ...
