The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) sparked worldwide excitement in March as particle physicists reported tantalizing evidence for new physics — potentially a new force of nature. Now, our new result, yet ...

Penn State scientists have unveiled a new theory-driven method to predict superconductors, offering a possible path toward ...

In October 2024 the network detected a clear signal that pointed back to a merger that occurred 700 million light-years away. The progenitor black holes were 20 and 6 solar masses and the larger ...

As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is, “When are you going to find something?” Resisting the temptation to sarcastically ...

Plenty of people complain that science is too monolithic, that it's a victim of "groupthink" and that people who come up with new ideas are routinely labeled as crackpots. But as much as novel ideas ...

Rochester Institute of Technology will begin offering a new Ph.D. in the fall of 2024 that is designed to prepare graduates to extend the frontiers of fundamental scientific knowledge and develop new ...

A new physics-based model reveals how healthy gut microbiomes maintain stability through complex microbial interactions, resisting microbial chaos.

At a fundamental level, what is our Universe made of? This question has driven physics forward for centuries. Even with all the advances we've made, we still don't know it all. While the Large Hadron ...

It is unusual for TV news to open with a story about physics, but it happened on July 4, 2012, when all around the world stations chose to devote prime time to breaking news from Geneva: a search of ...
