For more than two decades, amateur photographer Dale Carter has documented the physicists who come to the Black Hills for ...

The demonstration of the first antimatter quantum bit paves the way for substantially improved tests of nature’s fundamental ...

Scientists on the ATLAS experiment explored the polarization of W bosons to test the Higgs mechanism and gain a deeper ...

On July 21, 2000, the DONUT collaboration at Fermilab announced the detection of tau neutrinos for the first time. Here are a ...

A large and unexpected excess of top quark pairs has the physics community excited, but the interpretation is still up for debate. In 1995, Alexander Grohsjean cut out a story from the local German ...

The fundamental particle of light is both ordinary and full of surprises. What physicists refer to as photons, other people might just call light. As quanta of light, photons are the smallest possible ...

Scientists are exploring a variety of ways to make quantum bits. We may not need to settle on a single one. The goal of building a quantum computer is to harness the quirks of quantum physics to solve ...

The best of both worlds Collider experiments crash beams of particles, pumped full of energy, into one another or into a target. In the crash, all of that energy can briefly convert into new particles ...

Neutrinos don’t seem to get their mass in the same way as other particles in the Standard Model. In 1998, researchers made a discovery that challenged their understanding of particle physics and ...
