A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: the sterile neutrino.

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

For three decades, a riddle has followed neutrinos, the near-weightless particles that stream through Earth by the trillions ...

Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that barely interact with matter. They can pass through planets without stopping. The ...

The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.

Professor Pan and his team recreated Einstein's thought experiment to demonstrate how the quantum world actually works.

University of Chicago scientists have solved a 20-year-old puzzle in particle physics using data from an experiment conducted for an entirely different purpose. Physicists had long known that ...

From its resting place outside Chicago, Illinois, a long-defunct experiment is threatening to throw the field of elementary particles off balance. Physicists have toiled for ten years to squeeze a ...

Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...
