So-called “XYZ states” defy the standard picture of particle behavior and have given rise to several attempts to understand ...

Atomic nuclei, composed of protons and neutrons, hide quarks and gluons at their core. These latter particles, still challenging to study, have long eluded scientists. In the mid-20th ...

However, in the following years, physicists discovered quarks and gluons. While quarks are particles that combine to form ...

Nuclear physics theorists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have demonstrated that ...

An elusive particle that first formed in the hot, dense maelstrom of the early universe has puzzled physicists for decades.

Muon colliders could slam the subatomic particles together in hopes of unlocking physics secrets. Giving muons a speed boost is a crucial step.

The Belle II experiment has recently made precise measurements of the lifetime of subatomic particles called quarks and ...

A recent study has proposed a new mechanism for the formation of primordial black holes that could provide answers about dark matter.

How were quarks discovered, what did physicists think they were, and what did they turn out to be? These questions are answered through a collection of personal remembrances. The focus is on the ...

Move over daylight: standard time is best for our health; ranking the most unique Canadian animals; studying the corpse of ...

Vampire bats on a treadmill, garbage science wins Canada's most prestigious science prize, sugar rationing led to healthier ...
