A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole with a "dark charge." If true, this theory could lead to a definitive catalog ...

I peeked in on the house-sized particle detector known as STAR just after it took its last-ever snapshot of one of the most extreme types of fireball ever created. Inside, the conditions just after ...

In July 2012, physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe triumphantly announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, the long-sought linchpin of the subatomic world. Interacting with Higgs ...

Moon dust is sharp, corrosive, and potentially fatal. NASA’s new electric force field shield is designed to blast it away. Amy Fritz, a dust-mitigation researcher at Johnson Space Center, pours ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle proposed for decades to explain puzzling neutrino behavior. Their high-precision ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: It used to be thought that bizarre interactions between subatomic particles known as neutrinos could be explained by another type of neutrino. The ...

India's first homegrown cosmic dust detector, the Dust EXperiment (DEX), has uncovered a relentless bombardment of microscopic interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) slamming into orbital instruments ...

Notoriously ghostly particles called neutrinos may have revealed a crack in our understanding of all the particles and forces in the universe. The standard model of particle physics, which catalogues ...

In a research article recently published in Space: Science & Technology, scholars from Beijing Institute of Technology, China Academy of Space Technology, and Chinese Academy of Sciences together ...

‘Pushing Daises’ creator Bryan Fuller makes his directorial debut with a stylized action dramedy about a girl afraid of the monster under her bed. Elegantly ornate, the handful of locations where ...

Whenever a new movie comes out, there’s a question that always seems to linger in the air. Is this movie doing anything new? Is it taking us anywhere fresh? And sadly, in our current day and age, many ...
