Mars, often depicted as a barren red planet, is far from lifeless. With its thin atmosphere and dusty surface, it is an ...

They're called ghost particles for a reason. They're everywhere—trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our ...

Scientists announced on Wednesday that they have found no evidence for the hypothetical “sterile neutrino,” an extra version of the ghostly neutrino particles that are ubiquitous in the universe. The ...

Two papers challenged the existence of theorized particles called sterile neutrinos that might account for mysteries like the cosmos’s dark matter. By Kenneth Chang Just how many types of neutrinos ...

Deep underground in southern China, there is a 20,000-ton tank of liquid that can detect neutrinos. Named JUNO, the detector's first results are in — and they're very promising. When you purchase ...

(via PBS Space Time) Physics is this close to understanding the entire universe. And what lives in this gap? Many physicists think it’s the elusive graviton—the quantum particle of gravity—whose ...
