What makes up the matter we perceive in the universe? To start, there are the usual suspects, like electrons, protons, quarks and neutrinos. But if those particles aren't strange enough for you, I'm ...

They’re called ghost particles for a reason. They’re everywhere – trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our bodies, our planet, even the entire cosmos – without us noticing. These so ...

Correlations between quantum particles result in a rhythmic signal – without the need for an external beat to set the tempo. Nature has many rhythms: the seasons result from the Earth's movement ...

Known as semi-Dirac fermions, particles with this bizarre behavior were first predicted 16 years ago. The discovery was made in a semi-metal material called ZrSiS, made up of zirconium, silicon and ...

Tiny plastic particles are everywhere - both in nature and the human body. "Microplastics are pervasive in the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe," three researchers write in the ...

They slip through your skin, your walls, and the whole Earth without leaving a mark. Neutrinos earn the nickname “ghost particles” because they almost never interact with anything. Yet those rare ...
