Physicists know that their elegant theoretical description of forces and particles – the Standard Model – must be incomplete, ...

It was a head-spinning discovery. In 2018, researchers in Japan claimed to find concrete evidence of an elusive particle, a ...

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the standard model.

Microplastics and nanoplastics are so small and lightweight they can be swept into the air, where they may be helping to heat ...

When fundamental particles are heavier or lighter than expected, physicists' understanding of the universe can tip into the unknown. A particle that is just beyond its predicted mass can unravel ...

The new study, published in Nature Health, covers more than half a decade of posts from nearly 70,000 Reddit users and highlights two main classes of symptoms that warrant further study: reproductive ...

Turning to AI to complete tasks may be eroding people's ability to make an effort to think for themselves and makes them more likely to give up, new research has found. This could leave us in a ...

The Iran war is starting to show up in ways both obvious and not so much, with soaring energy costs leading the impact and potential hits on broader growth simmering beneath the surface. Should the ...
