A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden ...

A new study on the mechanical stability of bonds between the spike protein on the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its receptors on human cells during infection has revealed differences in the binding stability ...

One proposed way of examining if such a force could exist is by closely monitoring asteroid trajectories, and few near-Earth ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something particles simply possess, a built-in feature explained by the Higgs field but not fully illuminated by it. A new wave of research is now ...

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to probe the fringes of known physics, and now the facility has found particles not behaving as predicted. While it’s still early days, the discovery ...

Andromeda This image of the galaxy was taken with a small telescope and includes two dwarf galaxies. (Courtesy: David (Deddy) Dayag/CC BY-SA 4.0) New physics, in the form of a “fifth force”, could be ...

Hungarian researchers have reported the persistent detection of an anomalous decay signal, interpreted as evidence for a new particle, X17, which would necessitate the existence of a fifth fundamental ...

Images from NASA's June Spacecraft have given oceanographers the raw materials for a new study that describes the rich turbulence at Jupiter's poles and the physical forces that drive the large ...
