The electrodes are coated with carbon nanotubes. As they flow through the reactor, the reactants interact weakly with the carbon nanotubes, exposing them to the electric field. This induces electronic ...

Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon plasma that filled the universe just after the Big Bang really was a ...

In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...

Physicists observed the first clear evidence that quarks create a wake as they speed through quark-gluon plasma, confirming ...

Every second, a thousand billion of elusive neutrinos pass straight through every square cm of your body. Astrophysicists ...

Some things are easier to achieve if you're not alone. As researchers from the University of Rostock, Germany have shown, this very human insight also applies to the most fundamental building blocks ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

In planning, we arguably do have a kind of “theory of everything”—a framework that allows for the meaningful participation of ...

The Big Bang's early moments were crucial for nucleosynthesis, leading to the formation of light elements and influencing the universe's structure.
