One of the four German films to feature in the main competition selection at this year’s Berlinale was The Elementary Particles by Oskar Roehler. The film is inspired by the 1998 novel of the same ...

Without elementary particles, there'd be no X-Ray machines, no Internet and no electricity. Because some elementary particles penetrate matter without destroying it, they're a boon for scientific and ...

Researchers have, for the first time, described the properties of one-dimensional anyons and outlined how these particles can be observed using existing experimental setups.

Scientists have observed particles forming from the vacuum, revealing how matter may emerge from seemingly empty space.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. If you take any amount of matter, no matter how small or how large, ...

In the 1990s, the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND) in Los Alamos, New Mexico, found a weird anomaly during its experiments on tiny elementary particles called neutrinos. It found far more ...

In particle physics, data long outlives the detectors that generate it. A decade ago the 4,100-metric-ton Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) reached the end of its life and was shut down, stripped of ...
