In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, ...

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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. An artist's concept of multiple types of subatomic particles. (Mark Garlick/Science Photo Library) Forget about turtles; for all ...

For decades, scientists have explored the enigmatic world of fundamental particles, uncovering the building blocks of our universe. But what if some of these particles, once deemed impossible, ...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making significant strides in the realm of physics, demonstrating immense potential across various domains. Among the many fascinating prospects is the application of ...

Physicists may have yet another fundamental particle left to discover. When physicists at the Large Hardon Collider discovered the Higgs boson back in 2012, they’d found the last missing piece of the ...

It’s a fundamental principle of physics that particles with opposite charges attract each other, while those with the same charge repel. But now, scientists at the University of Oxford have found that ...

Why didn’t the universe annihilate itself moments after the big bang? A new finding at Cern on the French-Swiss border brings us closer to answering this fundamental question about why matter ...

Neutrinos as physicists understand them cannot constitute dark matter. The Standard Model explains how the basic building blocks — fundamental particles — and three of the four known forces created ...

When the universe first burst into being, all of space was a cosmic cauldron filled with a roiling, fiery liquid of fundamental particles heated to trillions of degrees. But this seething primordial ...
