A key theory of particle physics, the Standard Model has withstood test after test. But there are holes in the theory, particularly when it comes to gravity.

When the Muon g-2 team measured the muons — the more massive, heavier cousins to the simple electrons — they noticed their measurement didn’t align with the Standard Model, which is the core theory of ...

But recent results hinting at unexplained new physics beyond the standard model are of this second type. Detailed studies from the LHCb experiment found that a particle known as a beauty quark ...

This week, this enormous scientific facility, ten years in the making, will begin its hunt for the most elusive particles in ...

IFLScience traveled to CERN to get an exclusive insight into the crucial theory of particle physics, its limitations, and what might lie beyond.

An experiment with a single electron, trapped for months on end, produced one of the most precise tests yet of the standard model of particle physics.

The Standard Model is the modern physical understanding of three of the four forces of nature: electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force.

The existence of the Higgs boson completes the standard model of particle physics.

The Standard Model is our best theory for how the universe operates, but there are some missing pieces that physicists are struggling to find.

A new measurement of the W boson’s mass, made by smashing particles together, reveals a potential crack in physics’ standard model.

Scientists have discovered a solution to the “damped quantum harmonic oscillator,” paving the way for what could become the ...

Now scientists at the world’s largest particle collider have observed a new class of antimatter particles breaking down at a different rate than their matter counterparts.
