The Higgs boson particle could have kept our universe from collapsing within a larger multiverse, physicists say.

The Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment would turn a massive swath of the Pacific Ocean into natures own neutrino detector.

"`It's quite hard to destroy the Earth.' Does that statement make anyone else nervous? I mean, does that sound like experience talking?" -from the comments on the LHC at slashdot

String theory might be the theory of everything… or a flawed framework for theoretical physics.

Fashion About 10,000 muons reach every square meter of the earths surface a minute; these charged particles form as by-products of cosmic rays colliding with molecules in the upper atmosphere.

A particle physicist explains just what this keystone theory includes. After 50 years, it’s the best we’ve got to answer what everything in the universe is made of and how it all holds together.

Wildcard identity-based encryption (WIBE) is a generalization of hierarchical identity-based encryption (HIBE) where a sender can simultaneously encrypt messages to a group of users matching a certain pattern, defined as a sequence of identities and wildcards. This special feature makes WIBE a promising solution to distributed IoT data security. In this paper, we propose the first construction of a post-quantum WIBE scheme. Our scheme is proven secure in the standard model, and it enjoys the sec...

In D’Agnolo and Teresi’s model, in its early moments the universe is a collection of many universes each with a different value of the Higgs mass

Roger Penrose, one of the preeminent physicists of our day, envisions that the universe is eternally expanding.
