On March 24, at the annual Rencontres de Moriond conference taking place in La Thuile, Italy, the LHCb collaboration at CERN reported a new milestone in our understanding of the subtle yet profound ...

The LHCb experiment at CERN has revealed a fundamental asymmetry in the behavior of particles called baryons. “The reason why it took longer to observe CP violation in baryons than in mesons is down ...

An excess 21-cm absorption signal is a clear sign of scattering of baryons and dark-matter particles. In general, the intensity of the 21-cm signal is expressed as the observed brightness temperature ...

Dark matter keeps getting blamed for the universe’s big patterns while staying stubbornly out of reach. You cannot see it, ...

Figure 1: Map of the hot gas in and around the galaxy cluster Abell 2744. We computed surface-brightness images by subtracting the NXB from the raw images and dividing them by the exposure maps. To ...

Surprising observation: evidence for lambda baryons and the involvement of diquarks in their production has been spotted in data taken at Jefferson Lab's CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer. (Courtesy ...

Researchers performed the first-ever simulation of baryons -- fundamental quantum particles -- on a quantum computer. A team of researchers led by an Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) faculty ...

There’s a newfound mismatch between matter and antimatter. And that could bring physicists one step closer to understanding how everything in the universe came to be. For the most part, particles and ...

Physicists working at the CERN particle physics lab said they detected a slight but significant difference in how particles of matter and antimatter decay. By Kenneth Chang Understanding why matter ...

Dark matter and its impact on cosmology have puzzled physicists for nearly a century. At Perimeter Institute, two researchers are trying to better understand how one potential dark matter candidate, ...

Everyone, at some point in their lives, wonders why they are here. Existential questions don’t stop at the personal level, though. Why is there a Universe, and why is it filled with matter? The last ...
