And to do it faster, with less environmental impact At a time when a looming multi-trillion-dollar supply gap in critical ...

By breaking away from the laws of classical physics, quantum physics has opened the door to describing the behavior of atoms ...

In an unprecedented breakthrough, scientists have detected a neutrino with the highest energy ever recorded, deep in the ...

Muon catalysed fusion is a type of cold fusion technology that’s been around for decades, but using muons in the fusion ...

But with all that complexity, how can scientists sort through the resulting subatomic chaos? The SMSPDs can precisely detect single particles at a time ... such as the planned Future Circular Collider ...

Comprising 160 plastic scintillator (PS) modules with optimized wavelength shifting fiber (WLS-fiber) arrangements and silicon photomultipliers, the system offers enhanced light yield and muon ...

Smashing subatomic particles together at near-light speeds ... including the proposed Future Circular Collider or a muon collider. Fermilab scientist Cristián Peña, who led the research, sees ...

Neutrinos are subatomic particles with nearly zero mass while also carrying no charge. The particle interacts very weakly with matter, allowing it to travel to large amounts of matter without ...

the prevailing theory of fundamental particles and forces in our universe. Plans are underway to create more powerful particle accelerators, whose collisions will unleash even larger subatomic ...

There's a much more powerful option. By using subatomic particles as its basis, a so-called quantum computer can handle a massive amount of data. With quantum computing, in fact, calculations that ...
