In a recent experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN produced particles believed to have only existed in the moments following the Big Bang. This remarkable achievement offers valuable ...

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, ...

For decades, scientists have explored the enigmatic world of fundamental particles, uncovering the building blocks of our universe. But what if some of these particles, once deemed impossible, ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

Take a deep breath … now consider, for a moment, the chemical compounds that have filled your lungs. As most of us know, air contains just the right amount of oxygen (21%) and nitrogen (78%) to allow ...

NASA's IMAP mission aims to map the heliosphere, study solar wind, and improve space weather forecasting for Earth's ...

The LUX-ZEPLIN detector is breaking new ground in the hunt for dark matter, setting unprecedented limits on WIMP particles.

Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) are experts in nuclear forensics: the art and science of ...

Transmission electron micrograph of SARS-CoV-2 virus particles, isolated from a patient. Image captured and color-enhanced at the NIAID Integrated Research Facility (IRF) in Fort Detrick, Maryland.

Titanium micro-particles in the oral mucosa around dental implants are common. This is shown in a new study which also identified 14 genes that may be affected by these particles. Titanium ...

Wildfire smoke causes more air pollution than current atmospheric models can predict. A new study by researchers at King ...
