Restricting a strange class of particles known as anyons to one dimension could force them into adopting one of two new forms, models suggest, hinting at new fundamental interactions in particle ...

Cleanrooms are designated as controlled environments where the levels of airborne particles are carefully regulated. Their construction and utilization are meticulously planned to minimize the ingress ...

Theoretical physicists have proposed the existence of a new type of particle that doesn’t fit into the conventional classifications of fermions and bosons. Their “paraparticle,” described in Nature in ...

Scientists working at the South Pole have completed a major hardware expansion of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, installing new sensor strings deep in Antarctic ice during the 2025-2026 austral ...

Accurately modeling irregularly-shaped particles isn’t easy, but a new study found a way to improve a century-old idea.
