A strange kind of geometry governs how particles move inside matter. Now, for the first time, physicists have uncovered its ...

A new calculation shows how five atoms interact in the Efimov effect. It marks a major leap in quantum physics. Matter behaves weirdly at the quantum scale, one of the strangest examples being the ...

“There’s a lot of meanings for ‘small,’” says Janet Conrad, a particle physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

Kaons have several known common ways of decaying, but the one in this paper is so rare that scientists weren’t sure it existed before now. Their model predicted they’d see less than a quarter of one ...

Explore the fascinating world of atoms in this video, which delves into their fundamental components: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Discover the shortcomings of the traditional atomic model as we ...
