A 'boom' of light that appears when a particle exceeds the speed of light set by a medium could, in other contexts, signal a kind of quantum instability that could trigger what's known as vacuum decay ...
Particle and high energy physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the interactions that govern them across the smallest distance scales and highest energies. The Standard ...
The six-year Dark Energy Survey has released its full results, showing that two leading models of cosmology are equally valid — but both fail to explain one key observation.
Auburn University physics PhD student Jessica Eskew has been awarded a prestigious U.S. Department of Energy Office of ...
Particle and high energy physics is dedicated to unravelling the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces governing their interactions. This field encompasses experimental efforts at the ...
