This discovery is important because it ruled out a major possibility for new physics beyond the Standard Model.

The masses of fundamental particles such as the Z and W bosons could have arisen from the twisted geometry of hidden ...

Neutrinos may be nearly invisible, but they play a starring role in the Universe. Long-standing anomalies had hinted at a ...

Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.

Physicists are closing in on one of the most persistent mysteries in particle physics: whether a hidden kind of neutrino is ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

High-precision measurements from the KATRIN experiment strongly limit the existence of light sterile neutrinos and narrow the search for new physics. Neutrinos are extremely difficult to detect, yet ...

Physicists at the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope Initiative, KM3NeT, built a cathedral of glass spheres that listens for ...

A postgraduate student from Bangladesh steps into CERN’s vast research ecosystem, navigating cutting-edge physics while confronting the limits of global scientific access ...

A new measurement by CERN’s ATLAS Collaboration has strengthened evidence that the masses of fundamental particles originate through their interaction with the Higgs field. Building on earlier results ...

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...
