Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in ...

Researchers at RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich have uncovered important characteristics of double quantum dots in bilayer graphene, an increasingly promising material for possible ...

Initially regarded as a scientific curiosity upon its discovery in 1911 by Heike Kamerlingh Onnes, superconductivity has provided physicists with numerous theoretical challenges and experimental ...

The quest to understand neutrino masses and the intricate patterns of flavour mixing remains at the forefront of particle physics research. Neutrino oscillation experiments have firmly established ...

The Standard Model of particles and interactions is remarkably successful for a theory everyone knows is missing big pieces. It accounts for the everyday stuff we know like protons, neutrons, ...

In the coming weeks, Symmetry will explore the ways scientists are using artificial intelligence to advance particle physics and astrophysics—in a series of articles written and illustrated entirely ...

Compositionally asymmetric diblock copolymers provide an attractive platform for understanding the emergence of tetragonally close-packed, Frank–Kasper phases in soft matter. Block-polymer phase ...

Particle and high energy physics is dedicated to unravelling the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces governing their interactions. This field encompasses experimental efforts at the ...
