Erin McCarthy '23, physics summa cum laude, is a rarity among young scientists. As an undergraduate researcher in Syracuse University's College of Arts & Sciences' Department of Physics, she guided a ...

Multiple independent analyses of the oldest light in the universe now point to a subtle but persistent twist in its polarization, a signal that, if confirmed, cannot be explained by the Standard Model ...

Hypothetical particle physics models constitute a research area focused on constructing and analyzing theoretical frameworks that extend or modify the Standard Model to explain observed anomalies and ...

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...

Physics looks most complete when its predictions keep landing on target, but the real stress test comes from rare events that refuse to behave. A recent kaon decay anomaly did exactly that, forcing ...

Physicists have found that an elementary particle called the W boson appears to be 0.1% too heavy — a tiny discrepancy that could foreshadow a huge shift in fundamental physics. The measurement, ...

Axions, hypothetical subatomic particles that were first proposed by theoretical physicists in the late 1970s, remain among the most promising dark matter candidates. Physics theories suggest that the ...

New, precise measurements of already discovered particles are shaking up physics, according to a scientist working at the Large Hadron Collider. By Roger Jones / The Conversation Published May 9, 2022 ...
