A discrepancy in the observed versus the predicted mass of fundamental particles called W bosons "could open a door to a whole new subatomic world."

DURHAM, N.C. – A new measurement of a tiny subatomic particle doesn’t line up with our current best model of the inner workings of the universe, and Duke physicist Ashutosh Kotwal is excited. Over

Next July will be the 10th anniversary of one of the most important discoveries in physics, the discovery of the Higgs boson. The elusive particle whose existence...

A new analysis of W bosons suggests these particles are significantly heavier than predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 1988 was awarded jointly to Leon M. Lederman, Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger "for the neutrino beam method and the demonstration of the doublet structure of the leptons through the discovery of the muon neutrino".

Scientists find a sub-atomic particle's mass is at odds with one a theory underpinning modern physics.

Paris - After a decade of meticulous measurements, scientists announced Thursday that a fundamental particle -- the W boson -- has a significantly greater mass than theorised, shaking the foundations of our understanding of how the universe...

New measurements of a subatomic particle provide the strongest hint yet that the leading theory of quantum physics that explains our universe is missing a fundamental element, scientists say.

After a decade of meticulous measurements, scientists announced Thursday that a fundamental particle -- the W boson -- has a significantly greater mass than theorised, shaking the foundations of our…

How was this universe of ours born? The key to unraveling this profound mystery is neutrinos, one of the elementary particles that make up matter.
