Neutrinos may be nearly invisible, but they play a starring role in the Universe. Long-standing anomalies had hinted at a ...

This discovery is important because it ruled out a major possibility for new physics beyond the Standard Model.

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

A deep-sea neutrino telescope has detected the most energetic neutrino ever recorded. The particle, known as a "ghost particle," was about 30 times more active than the previous record-holder.

Physicists are closing in on one of the most persistent mysteries in particle physics: whether a hidden kind of neutrino is ...

Scientists prepare to lower equipment used to detect neutrinos into the Mediterranean Sea. (Paschal Coyle, KM3NeT via AP) NEW YORK (AP) — A neutrino detector submerged in the Mediterranean Sea has ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it. An international collaboration of ...

Earlier this year, an underwater detector in the Mediterranean Sea found the most energetic neutrino to date. And scientists are still talking about it because, well, this discovery could be a really ...

Borexino, a huge underground particle detector in Italy, has picked up a never-before-seen type of neutrino coming from the Sun. These neutrinos confirm a 90-year-old hypothesis and complete our ...

Physicists were left with more questions than answers this week after returning empty-handed following a painstaking search for an elusive theoretical particle called a sterile neutrino. The results ...
