“There’s a lot of meanings for ‘small,’” says Janet Conrad, a particle physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

What do quarks, electrons, and photons have in common? They’re all part of the Standard Model - the theory that helped ...

Particles go through a series of movements and arrangements. The more compact the arrangement is, the more solid it is. The kinetic particle theory describes this.

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

New measurement of wobbling muons back up previous findings – potentially challenging the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
