Researchers plan to install the first Japanese radio telescope in Antarctica to study how stars are formed, enhancing the ...

In February 2023, a cosmic particle detector housed deep in the Mediterranean Sea recorded the arrival of a neutrino with approximately 20 to 30 times more energy than any other neutrino documented ...

For the past decade, gravitational wave astronomy has opened our eyes to amazing cosmic phenomena thanks to LIGO, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory. Bob McDonald celebrates LIGO ...

Neutrinos are exceedingly common in the Universe, with billions of them zipping around us throughout the day from a variety of sources. Due to their extremely low mass and no electric charge they ...

Neutrino oscillations, a quantum phenomenon in which neutrinos change their flavour during propagation, have long intrigued physicists due to their role in elucidating the mass hierarchy and ...

To successfully navigate this area, you'll want a good light source. I'd recommend making the Makeshift Headlamp at least, so you can keep your path illuminated as you swim without worrying about ...

Neutrino lasers: It’s an idea that many physicists didn’t see coming. At first glance, physics suggests that it would be impossible to make a laser of neutrinos, famously elusive subatomic particles.

The highest energy neutrino ever detected from space may finally have an origin story. Mathematical analyses suggest that the ghost particle could’ve come from a theoretical object known as a ...

At MIT’s Formaggio Lab, Peña’s work may help researchers pinpoint the elusive particle’s mass—and refine the fundamental laws of physics in the process. Growing up in South Central Los Angeles, Junior ...
