The weak nuclear force doesn't play by the normal rules — and, in fact, it breaks one of the biggest rules of all.

An international team led by Princeton University scientists has discovered an elusive massless particle theorized 85 years ago. The particle could give rise to faster and more efficient electronics ...

An exotic particle theorized more than 85 years ago has finally been discovered. Dubbed the "Weyl fermion", it is a strange but stable particle that has no mass, behaves as both matter and anti-matter ...

According to string theory, absolutely everything in the universe—all of the particles that make up matter and forces—is comprised of tiny vibrating fundamental strings. Moreover, every one of these ...

Weyl fermions, first theorised 85 years ago, could facilitate the free and efficient flow of electricity, potentially allowing electronic devices of the future to be even more powerful . An ...

An elusive massless particle could exist in a magnetic crystal structure, revealed by neutron and X-ray research. An elusive massless particle could exist in a magnetic crystal structure, revealed by ...

In 1956, theoretical physicist David Pines predicted that electrons in a solid can do something strange. While they normally have a mass and an electric charge, Pines asserted that they can combine to ...

Scientists have discovered Weyl fermions, elusive massless particles theorized 85 years ago that could give rise to faster and more efficient electronics because of their unusual ability to behave as ...
