Electric dipole moments (EDMs) are a crucial area of research in particle physics, particularly in the context of understanding the fundamental symmetries of nature. The study of EDMs is closely ...

The universe shouldn’t be here. Everything scientists know about particle physics, summed up in a theory called the Standard Model, suggests that the big bang should have created equal quantities of ...

Ars Technica has been separating the signal from the noise for over 25 years. With our unique combination of technical savvy and wide-ranging interest in the technological arts and sciences, Ars is ...

In 1867, Lord Kelvin imagined atoms as knots in the aether. The idea was soon disproven. Atoms turned out to be something ...

The study of electric dipole moments (EDMs) offers a unique window into the violation of time-reversal symmetry, an effect that, when coupled with charge-parity (CP) violation, presents fundamental ...
