For nearly a hundred years, every known particle in the universe belonged to one of two camps. Bosons, like photons, can ...
Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to ...
We’ve created a new way to explore the fundamental constituents of the universe. [Editor’s note: The full, interactive map is available below.] All of nature springs from a handful of components — the ...
Breaking the rules is exciting, especially if they have held for a long time. This is true not just in life but also in particle physics. Here the rule I'm thinking of is called “lepton flavor ...
Quantum physics paints a strange picture of the world, one filled with spooky connections, unsettling uncertainties and—perhaps oddest of all—particles that spontaneously spring into being from the ...
This month is a time to celebrate. Cern has just announced the discovery of four brand new particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva. This means that the LHC has now found a total of 59 ...
JEOL’s Particle Analysis Software 3 (PA3) improves the potential of analytical SEM by automating the detection, EDS analysis, and classification of particles, grains, and additional elements in the ...
