Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...

In a short talk at Caltech, physicist Richard Feynman laid out a vision of manipulating and controlling atoms at the tiniest ...

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

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

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

Drexel’s Department of Physics is home to faculty who are leaders in the field of particle physics. Our research spans neutrino properties, neutrino astronomy, and the search for dark matter, and our ...

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

If you want to explain what was and what is, you need particle physics. Because everything we see consists of molecules and atoms, and atoms in turn consist of atomic nuclei and electrons. The atomic ...

New measurements of a subatomic particle provide the strongest hint yet that the leading theory of quantum physics that explains our universe may be missing a fundamental element, scientists say. The ...

CERN has installed two cold boxes at the ATLAS and CMS sites, a major milestone for the High-Luminosity LHC upgrade.

Two leading scientists discuss the future of their field. Credit...Ariel Davis Supported by By Dennis Overbye The future belongs to those who prepare for it, as scientists who petition federal ...

Everything we see consists of molecules and atoms, which in turn consist of atomic nuclei and electrons. The atomic nuclei contain positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons, which consist of ...
