Experts believe the universe may have a built-in 'self-destruct button' called false vacuum decay which could destroy the ...

The cutting-edge elementary particle observation facility here where it is hoped proton decay will be observed for the first ...

Unusual radio waves were discovered below the surface of Antarctica over a decade ago, which follow-up studies haven’t been able to find or explain.

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

A festinating new theory shifts focus from space to time, arguing the clock-ticking we take for granted is richer and weirder ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general ...

In a nutshell A physicist proposes that time has three dimensions instead of one, which could finally unite quantum mechanics ...

The ANITA experiment has found anomalous radio signals above Antarctica, prompting new investigations into mysterious subatomic particles. Scientists have recently detected a pattern of strange ...

The signals didn’t even fit into the Standard Model of Particle Physics, which describes how matter is made up of subatomic particles. They could only be called anomalous.

The project was designed to capture data about neutrinos — subatomic particles that are especially difficult to study because they lack electric charge and have minimal mass.

A cosmic particle detector designed to pick up rays from space instead recorded a series of bizarre signals from under the ice. Penn State, whose scientists are part of the international research ...
