Understanding neutrino interactions is crucial for obtaining a complete picture of particle physics and the universe. To date, neutrino interaction cross sections have not been measured at high energy ...

For years, one tiny mismatch in particle physics carried outsized hopes. The muon, a heavier and short-lived cousin of the ...

A major obstacle in calculating the muon’s behavior is the strong force, the most powerful of the four fundamental forces, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak force. It binds quarks ...

Muon is the heavier cousin (around 200 times) of the electron. It is produced when cosmic rays interact with Earth’s ...

Physicists have spent the last 20 years pondering an apparent discrepancy between experimental results and theoretical ...

UPTON, NY—Physicists studying ghost-like particles called neutrinos from the international MicroBooNE collaboration have reported a first-of-its-kind measurement: a comprehensive set of the ...

David Armstrong studies a phenomenon that is ubiquitous in nature, yet only a few non-scientists know what it is. It’s called the weak force, or the weak interaction. Armstrong was recently named a ...

When the results of an experiment don’t match predictions made by the best theory of the day, something is off. Fifteen years ago, physicists at Brookhaven National Laboratory discovered something ...

Teppei Katori and Pierre Lasorak at Queen Mary University of London have studied data from the the T2K neutrino experiment in Japan to search for signs of single gamma-ray emission from neutrino ...

Researchers obtain the first direct observation of electron and muon neutrino interactions at the Large Hadron Collider using the FASERν detector Neutrinos are fundamental particles in the Standard ...

Physicists studying ghost-like particles called neutrinos from the international MicroBooNE collaboration have reported a first-of-its-kind measurement: a comprehensive set of the energy-dependent ...
