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

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

High-precision measurements from the KATRIN experiment strongly limit the existence of light sterile neutrinos and narrow the search for new physics. Neutrinos are extremely difficult to detect, yet ...

Australian researchers have played a central role in a landmark result from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment in South ...

Neutrinos, though nearly invisible, are among the most numerous matter particles in the universe. The Standard Model recognizes three types, but the discovery of neutrino oscillations revealed they ...

Physicists at the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope Initiative, KM3NeT, built a cathedral of glass spheres that listens for ...

Scientists have been able to show that the CRES method is suitable for determining the neutrino mass and has already set an upper limit for this fundamental quantity in a first measurement -- an ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the particle accelerator outside Geneva, Switzerland, was never meant to study neutrinos: the particles are ubiquitous but notoriously hard to catch 1. But a recent ...

Astronomers using the IceCube observatory, which is buried deep within the ice of the south pole, have detected seven elusive and exotic "ghost particle" candidates as they streamed through Earth. The ...

Three scientists have won the Nobel Prize in Physics for exploring some of the most violent and the most subtle aspects of the universe. Working independently, the researchers pioneered ways to ...
