Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...

Scientists at CERN’s LHCb experiment have discovered a new particle made of two charm quarks and one down quark.

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...

Did primordial black holes born during the Big Bang swallow the universe's antimatter, allowing matter to dominate the cosmos ...

CERN team discovers heavy proton, advancing understanding of strong force LHCb spots ultra-brief, charm-rich baryon that ...

Forces have mediator particles. Electromagnetism is mediated by the photons, for example. So most of the decay of this excited dark matter particle would be this unknown mediator. The excited state ...

More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that ...
