The precursors of heavy elements might arise in the plasma underbellies of swollen stars or in smoldering stellar corpses.

The spiritual view of life is trapped between two opposite words, physics and metaphysics, the study of the physical world and the study of what might lie beyond the physical. Given a choice ...

But axions were pushed aside as the WIMPs hypothesis gained more steam. Back-of-the-envelope calculations showed that the ...

A vast cavern in South Dakota shielded from the outside world will house sensitive equipment to detect tiny changes in sub-atomic particles Inside a laboratory nestled above the mist of the ...

The JUNO experiment, which will study the ways of the electrically neutral subatomic particles, will be the largest of its kind.

The Big Bang created a hot, ionized soup of subatomic particles. Hundreds of thousands of years in, in an event known as recombination, neutral atoms formed.

And the entire universe was shrouded in neutral hydrogen gas. Then, perhaps 100 million years or so in, everything started to ...

Scientists theorize there could be subatomic particles we have yet to discover. Here are five of the weirdest, rarest ...

Now, however, physicists have come up with a new way to dig without digging: muography. Muons are tiny subatomic particles that are everywhere on earth, according to physicists.

A decade after the discovery of the “amplituhedron,” physicists have excavated more of the timeless geometry underlying the standard picture of how particles move.
