Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...

Do we exist because of a single, tiny particle? This video explores how one fundamental particle plays a critical role in ...

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are conducting a study to assess key science questions that will drive research in the field of elementary particle physics for the next ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

On July 4, 2012, scientists at CERN confirmed the observation of the Higgs boson, an elementary particle first proposed in the 1960s. The boson’s discovery was a momentous occasion, as it meant ...

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 ...

Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

The theorized unseen structure of spacetime could also explain of the outstanding questions about the accelerating expansion ...

In particle physics, “annihilation” is a transformation. When you hear the word “annihilation,” you might think of a Marvel Comics storyline, or perhaps the first book in the Southern Reach Trilogy.
