Researchers over at the Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) say that they may have found the elusive glueball in meson f0(1710) through a new theoretical approach to calculate glueball decay ...

Scientists working at the world’s largest atom smasher have caught a bizarre subatomic particle in the act of changing from matter to antimatter. The discovery could help us understand how the ...

The discovery of what appears to be a new subatomic particle with bizarre properties is challenging theorists’ understanding of how matter behaves on the scale of protons and neutrons. What seems ...

Subatomic particles can rapidly change between matter and antimatter, scientists have now found. This groundbreaking discovery was made by monitoring charm mesons, which are subatomic particles that ...

Terms to describe the strange world of quantum physics have come to be quite common in our lexicon. Who, for instance, hasn't at least heard of a quark, or a gluon or even Schrodinger's cat? Now there ...

The discovery of a new particle will "transform our understanding" of the fundamental force of nature that binds the nuclei of atoms, researchers argue. The discovery of the new particle will help ...

More than three years after discovering a never-before-seen subatomic particle, physicists now know how these particles — called pentaquarks — are put together. New research reveals three completely ...

Smashing protons together in search of strange particles, scientists at the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva say they’ve discovered signs of particle decays that have long been predicted, but have ...
