If true, the idea would blow past one of physics’ most sacred limits: that parallel versions of reality can never talk to ...

Neutrino particles have extremely small masses, yet there are so many of them that they carve out the large-scale structure ...

Cosmology and quantum physics both offer tantalizing possibilities that we inhabit just one reality among many. But testing that idea is challenging.

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Most of the universe is made of dark matter and dark energy, yet scientists still don’t know what either one is. New ultra-sensitive detectors are being built to spot incredibly rare particle ...

From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

Across the quiet darkness of space and the buried detectors under Antarctic ice, a set of stubborn anomalies is piling up.

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...

Foundations in science and physics exist at the very core of the Netflix's hit show “Stranger Things," demonstrating to audiences for over a decade that our universe may be "stranger" than we care to ...
