Physicists discover a third type of particle that is neither boson nor fermion — and it breaks a rule that stood for nearly a century
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
