Renowned Chinese physicist and co-creator of Yang-Mills theory, key to the Standard Model, passes away in Beijing ...

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

In the search for new particles and forces in nature, physicists are on the hunt for behaviors within atoms and molecules that are forbidden by the tried-and-true Standard Model of particle physics.

String theory attempts to unify all forces and particles in the universe using vibrating strings. It aims to explain the Standard Model of particle physics, which is incomplete. String theory predicts ...

The Muon g-2 Collaboration has doubled the precision of their 2021 measurement of the muon’s magnetic moment and it disagrees with the predictions based on the standard model of physics. Muons are ...

Neutrinos are very common fundamental particles included in the Standard Model of particle physics. Measuring their ...
