CERN’s calculation of the W boson’s mass agrees with theory, contradicting a previous anomaly that had raised the possibility of new physics. Particle’s surprise mass threatens to upend the standard ...

For over a decade, confusion over the size of the proton has held scientists back. Disagreeing measurements of the subatomic particle’s radius meant that scientists couldn’t test one of their key ...
