Before the Ancient Romans, it was the Ancient Greeks who colonized Naples, leaving behind traces of life, and death, inside ancient burial chambers, she says. She points a flashlight at a stone-relief ...

Located in China, Juno is a 17-country collaboration that will try to detect neutrinos and antineutrinos to learn more about ...

A video from science YouTuber James Orgill, better known by the channel's name The Action Lab, has demonstrated how you might be able to use a mug of hot drink as a particle detector. If your aim is ...

Prototyping is an indispensable step in the development of particle physics experiments like DUNE and projects like PIP-II. When complete, the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, or DUNE, will be ...

Shifting from giant accelerators 26 km (16 miles) across to brain surgery theaters, a particle detector first developed by physicists at CERN is being used by scientists in Germany to treat brain ...

Researchers have tested the performance of a new device that boosts particle signals. Device could help facilitate the operation of new particle colliders, such as the Electron-Ion Collider. In ...

Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate particle detectors, and they have found the optimal nanowire size for high detection ...

When the first matter came into being right after the Big Bang, what was it like? It may not have been quite as scientists have been describing it. That is one of the possibilities raised by four ...

Gaseous detectors have long been an integral component of particle physics, providing essential data for tracking charged particles and elucidating complex event topologies in high-energy experiments.

UC Davis students have built a demonstration prototype for a dark matter detector and installed it at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, Switzerland. If the demonstration is succesful it could lead to ...

The model we have for understanding the universe’s fundamental particles is a bit like a gearbox: one tiny change to any one single particles’ properties throws off the mechanics of the other ...
