Part of what that means is that making a particle requires energy proportional to its mass. Neutrinos, which are very low mass, are easy to make; electrons have a higher threshold, while heavy Higgs ...

The Higgs boson is a fundamental particle discovered on July 4, 2012, by researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at CERN, Switzerland.

Particle accelerators can help scientists measure the smallest and largest particles in the universe.

The Large Hadron Collider is the world's largest particle accelerator. It's located at the European particle physics laboratory CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland.

A discovery about muons, a type of subatomic particle, could blow particle physics wide open. Here's what the news really means.

A cyclotron is a particle accelerator that uses magnetic and electric fields to speed up charged particles to very high speeds and powers many of the tools, treatments, and discoveries that improve ...

And that's that a particle with the energy of an LHC collision hits every square kilometer of the Earth every single second.

It was one of the most impossible technologies ever dreamed up by Star Trek. But quantum teleportation is not only real, it even works in space.

In the simplest terms, quantum entanglement means that aspects of one particle of an entangled pair depend on aspects of the other particle, no matter how far apart they are or what lies between them.

Sci-fi author Isaac Asimov once proposed building a particle accelerator on the moon in Popular Mechanics. Now, a physicist has revisited the idea.
