To learn more about the nature of matter, energy, space, and time, physicists smash high-energy particles together in large accelerator machines, creating sprays of millions of particles per second of ...

A collaboration of scientists tested next-generation superconducting microwire single photon detectors (SMSPDs) at Fermilab to further particle physics research. A team of researchers from the U.S.

The HALHF collaboration is developing a disruptive platform technology that could slash the size, cost and carbon footprint ...

Muons are getting a move on. In a step toward new types of particle physics experiments, scientists cooled and then accelerated a beam of muons. The subatomic particles, heavy cousins of electrons, ...

Welcome to this Physics World Particle & Nuclear Briefing which includes news, features and opinion about the latest developments and issues in these two areas. In this issue we take a look at ...

In the coming weeks, Symmetry will explore the ways scientists are using artificial intelligence to advance particle physics and astrophysics—in a series of articles written and illustrated entirely ...

Particle and high energy physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the interactions that govern them across the smallest distance scales and highest energies. The Standard ...

Elementary particle physics reflects the human quest to understand the basic building blocks of nature and the rules that govern the physical world. This quest has led not only to critical scientific ...

Researechers are testing superconducting microwire single-photon detectors (SMSPDs) for use in future particle physics exepriments. The detectors, which were designed and fabricated at JPL and ...

The SMSPDs can precisely detect single particles at a time. The detectors were designed and fabricated at JPL and commissioned at the INQNET-Caltech labs. Credit: Cristián Peña, Fermilab To learn more ...
