A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future physicists is crucial.

Facilities that make particles called B mesons may seem obscure, but they could help explain why there is more matter than antimatter and what dark matter is, says Chanda Prescod-Weinstein ...

The Superconducting Super Collider was once planned to be the world’s largest particle accelerator, a project that promised groundbreaking discoveries in physics. But after billions of dollars were ...

The Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics conducts cutting-edge research in the field of nuclear, particle, and astroparticle physics, as well as in developing technologies for research and their ...

George Smoot , who shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2006 for his studies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), died on 18 September at the age of 80. Smoot’s work on the blackbody form and ...

Within the 3D structure of proteinase K, scientists are able to see details of sulphur and calcium atoms within the protein structure, highlighted in yellow. Since their discovery 125 years ago, ...

The Large Hadron Collider has led to groundbreaking discoveries, but scientists are now focused on an even larger project—a 91-kilometer ring buried beneath the Swiss-French countryside. This $17 ...

For decades, quantum computing has felt like something out of science fiction — abstract, theoretical, and always “10 years away.” But in 2025, the story has changed. Quantum technology is no longer ...
