The world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is gearing up for its next run after a three-year hiatus for an upgrade.
Researchers have discovered a new type of particle that is magnetic with the Higgs boson.
If certified, this will be the first time that a physical phenomenon is predicted since 1937 by the Italian theorist Ettore Majorana to appear in reality. Majorana fermi…
Physicists working on the HyperCP topic at Fermilab (USA) have just confirmed that they can both have initial results on the Higgs boson - the kind of elementary particl…
Recently, astrophysicists from Harvard have come up with a truly scary warning about our universe.
This promises to be a breakthrough discovery, helping us to explain many of the mysteries of the universe including dark matter.
According to the most accurate physical models today, the universe must surely collapse right after bulging from the Big Bang.
A new argument suggests that the Higgs boson and dark matter particles are likely to belong to the same material.
