The Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel (P5) whose participants include a UT physicist delivered recommendations to decision makers. ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are conducting a study to assess key science questions that will drive research in the field of elementary particle physics for the next ...

There are many outstanding questions about the universe: What is the nature of dark matter? Why is the universe expanding? How do neutrinos acquire their mass? Because experiments to answer these ...

Energetic particles that arise when cosmic rays hit Earth’s atmosphere could help assess hidden damage to buildings in Ukraine after the war. Primordial black holes may be exploding throughout the ...

A novel theory of 'wavy space-time' suggests that the division between our best descriptions of the universe on its smallest and largest scales may be because gravity does not play by quantum rules.

Particle physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces that govern their interactions. The field has evolved from early studies of protons, neutrons and electrons ...
