Steven Weinberg was a logical freight train – for many, the greatest theorist of the second half of the 20th century. It is timely to reflect on his legacy, the scientific component of which is laid ...

The idea of quarks as the ultimate constituents of strongly interacting particles has long been conventional dogma. Less well known, but no less important, is the role of quarks in nuclei. A recent ..

André de Gouvêa explains why neutrino masses imply the existence of new fundamental fields. Misfits Massive neutrinos are not part of the Standard Model. Credit: Symmetry After all these years, ...

The AWAKE experiment is adapting plasma-wakefield acceleration for applications in particle physics. Helicon plasma source AWAKE is experimenting with plasma technologies to scale proton-driven ...

This book provides a rich glimpse into written science communication throughout a century that introduced many new and abstract concepts in physics. It begins with Einstein’s 1905 paper “On the ...

New Challenges and Opportunities in Physics Education presents itself as a guidebook for high-school physics educators who are navigating modern challenges in physics education. But whether you’re ...

Pioneers Detecting ultra-high-frequency gravitational waves remains a visionary goal. Credit: CERN Since their first direct detection in 2015, gravitational waves (GWs) have become pivotal in our ...

Since his birth in Bohemia in 1924, Herwig Schopper has been a prisoner of war, an experimentalist with pioneering contributions in nuclear, accelerator and detector physics, director general (DG) of ...

As the harvest of data from the LHC experiments continues to increase, so does the required number of simulated collisions. This is a resource-intensive task as hundreds of particles must be tracked ...
