Recently, a series of precise measurements of already known, bog-standard particles and processes have threatened to shake up physics.

This week, this enormous scientific facility, ten years in the making, will begin its hunt for the most elusive particles in the universe ...

New measurement of wobbling muons back up previous findings – potentially challenging the Standard Model of Particle Physics.

The Concept of a Mirror Universe A universe that flows backward in time sounds more like science fiction than a scientific ...

New experiments that rely on very large machines have begun to probe the weak points of particle physics.

Recently, a series of precise measurements of already known, bog-standard particles and processes have threatened to shake up physics.

According to the Standard Model of particle physics, beauty quarks are expected to decay into electrons and muons at equal rates.

Since it was developed in the 1970s, the Standard Model of particle physics has been extremely successful at explaining the interactions of particles and most fundamental forces.

Particle physics has always proceeded in two ways, of which new particles is one. The other is by making very precise measurements that test the predictions of theories and look for deviations ...

The standard model of particle physics may be broken New, precise measurements of already discovered particles are shaking up physics, according to a scientist working at the Large Hadron Collider.

A series of thrilling research means physicists may have to start inventing brand new physics.

But recent results hinting at unexplained new physics beyond the standard model are of this second type. Detailed studies from the LHCb experiment found that a particle known as a beauty quark (quarks ...
