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

The Higgs boson self-coupling is a phenomenon where the Higgs interacts with itself, which can manifest in particle ...

Maddy has a degree in biochemistry from the University of York and specializes in reporting on health, medicine, and genetics. The most exciting possible avenue for physics beyond the standard model ...

The standard model of particle physics is both an incredible scientific achievement and a frustrating barrier that physicists are battling against. It has been crucial to understanding and predicting ...

As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is “When are you going to find something?” Resisting the temptation to sarcastically ...

It's often said in science that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Recent measurements of the mass of the elementary particle known as the W boson provide a useful case study as to ...

It is once again stocky particle spring. You might recall that, one year ago, researchers at Fermilab announced the discovery of a fat wobbly muon. Now, they have another offering for us: a boson with ...

There is a new Physics model that challenges the standard Big Bang theory. By definition, “ The Big Bang ” is how astronomers explain the way the universe began. “The Big Bang” is the idea that the ...

New, precise measurements of already discovered particles are shaking up physics, according to a scientist working at the Large Hadron Collider. By Roger Jones / The Conversation Published May 9, 2022 ...
