New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

Physicists have chased a unified description of nature for more than a century, yet quantum theory and gravity have ...

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: the sterile neutrino.

Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in ...

Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

Columbia professors contributed to new research that seeks to understand an anomaly that has puzzled particle physics for ...

The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...

The Standard Model. What a dull name for the most accurate scientific theory known to human beings. More than a quarter of the Nobel Prizes in physics of the last century are direct inputs to or ...

Physicists have measured an extremely rare particle decay inside the world's largest atom smasher — a discovery that bolsters the leading model of particle physics and leaves little room for ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...
