Astronomers from the University of Turku in Finland and elsewhere have performed a broadband spectral and timing study of an ...

Hybrid pixel detectors of Timepix3 technology allow noiseless single particle detection and identification. We exploit this capability for a comprehensive study of ionizing energy losses and their ...

An international team of researchers, led by scientists from GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Germany, has studied r-process ...

What happens when the smallest building blocks of matter refuse to play by the rules of traditional physics? For decades, ...

Silver-110’s decay reveals a promising path to measure antineutrino mass. New data could reshape future neutrino studies.

Every action in our world is powered by a "force of nature." Currently, there are four main forces that scientists cling to; ...

Rocket Lab USA is the second-most frequently used launch company in the U.S., behind SpaceX. The company is expected to launch its larger Neutron rocket later this year, which could clear the way ...

Each neutron packs 3 million electron volts of energy – similar to particles emitted during an atomic bomb explosion. Neutrons are tiny particles inside atoms, with no electric charge.

This paper presents a new particle swarm optimizer for solving multimodal multiobjective optimization problems which may have more than one Pareto-optimal solution corresponding to the same objective ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The Standard Model of Particle Physics accounts for four fundamental forces—strong, weak, electromagnetism, and gravity—but for decades ...

So, the high-energy particle wasn’t directly a dark matter particle, but rather a muon that decayed from dark matter likely fired from a blazar (a type of active galactic nucleus) right at Earth.
