Discover the fascinating world of particle physics — the most fundamental building blocks of the universe and the forces that connect them.

The first antimatter qubit will help search for differences between matter and antimatter ...

Matter-antimatter asymmetry puzzles physicists. Learn how the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) may find answers.

After enough experimentation, the "rules" of spin were added to scientists' knowledge of quantum physics, concurrently being developed in the 1920s. But it wasn't exactly a natural fit.

By examining deviations from expected spin dynamics, researchers seek not only to reveal hidden forces but also to address longstanding enigmas in astrophysics and particle physics.

Simple "spin models" used to explain magnetism can precisely reproduce any possible phenomenon in classical, non-quantum physics, according to scientists.

Surprising preference in particle spin alignment Spin orientation preference may point to a previously unknown influence of the strong nuclear force—and a way to measure its local fluctuations.

Data reveal a surprising preference in particle spin alignment Findings may point to a previously unknown influence of the strong force--and a way to measure its local fluctuations ...

But despite appearances, electrons don't spin. They can't spin; proving that it's impossible for electrons to be spinning is a standard homework problem in any introductory quantum physics course.

In truth, particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles are one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for ...

Exotic spin-dependent interactions represent a promising avenue for probing physics beyond the Standard Model. These interactions, hypothesised to be mediated by new light bosons, couple to the ...
