For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter ...

A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...

Mark Thomson takes the reins at the CERN particle-physics lab, which recently received $1bn in private donations for its next ...

Particles faster than light could revolutionise our understanding of space, time, and the universe’s fundamental laws.

If the universe was a soundtrack, we have been humming it our whole life. Every atom in our body, every star in the sky, every beam of light is part of a piece of music that never stops playing.
