But as usual in science, there's more to the story. Forces and Fields On human scales of mass and distance, matter obeys the laws of motion described by Sir Isaac Newton.
The latest approach has been to use Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), powerful emissions of radio waves that last just a fraction of ...
Physicists working at the CERN particle physics lab said they detected a slight but significant difference in how particles ...
A proton’s mass is just under 1 GeV/c², and most WIMP searches have focused on the mass range between 10 and 1,000 GeV/c². (Particle physicists find it convenient to measure masses in units of ...
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory have teamed up to identify a new possible example of a ...
Albert Einstein’s famous formula established the interchangeability of mass (matter) and energy in 1905. In 1945, this equivalency was demonstrated to all with the detonation of the first atomic ...
In a chilled lab where temperatures drop close to absolute zero, a speck of magnet hovers in place. This tiny magnet, levitating silently inside a special trap, may hold answers to one of the greatest ...
Some clusters of galaxies may not need dark matter in order for their physics to work. In new research, a physicist describes a “shell singularity,” where gravity applies without mass.
New results from the world's most sensitive dark matter detector put the best-ever limits on particles called WIMPs, a leading candidate for what makes up our universe's invisible mass.
The latest measurement pushes the possible mass of the neutrino lower than the previous limit set in 2022 by the KATRIN collaboration, of no more than 0.8 electronvolts. It is also nearly twice as ...
The Milky Way could have many more satellite galaxies than scientists have previously been able to predict or observe, ...
