Neutrino particles have extremely small masses, yet there are so many of them that they carve out the large-scale structure ...
They slip through your skin, your walls, and the whole Earth without leaving a mark. Neutrinos earn the nickname “ghost ...
The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...
They’re called ghost particles for a reason. They’re everywhere – trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our bodies, our planet, even the entire cosmos – without us noticing. These so ...
No matter how much order nor how many distinctions we make about the universe, in essence, it’s just a soup of subatomic waves and particles. Whether this represents some sort of primordial order or ...
A new study broadens the horizon of knowledge about how matter behaves under extreme conditions and helps to solve some great unknowns about the origin of the universe. An international team of ...
For a fraction of a second after the big bang occurred 13.8 billion years ago, most physicists believe, the newborn universe dramatically ballooned in size, jumping from being smaller than a proton to ...
Scientists recreate the early universe to study the first liquid ever formed and uncover how quarks moved through primordial matter.
In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
