Scientists may be approaching a 'fundamental breakthrough in cosmology and particle physics', if dark matter and 'ghost particles' can interact
Astronomers found evidence that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, hinting at a "fundamental breakthrough" that ...
The hypothetical faster-than-light particle known as the tachyon may marry with the special theory of relativity, according to a team of physicists, making its existence more plausible. Tachyons are a ...
A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...
Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.
By bringing the long-standing and opposing views of quantum mechanics together to form a single cohesive theory, a research ...
UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...

Scientists uncover a bizarre state of matter that shouldn’t be possible
In a quiet corner of low-temperature physics, researchers have stumbled on a phase of matter that seems to break one of the ...
The Standard Model of particles and interactions is remarkably successful for a theory everyone knows is missing big pieces. It accounts for the everyday stuff we know like protons, neutrons, ...
Dark matter makes up 27 percent of the universe’s total mass and energy — nearly five times more than “normal” matter that comprises planets and stars. True to its name, dark matter is hard to ...
