Scientists found 7 astrophysical tau neutrinos—particles that are notoriously difficult to detect—in an analysis of data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory

Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have yielded the simultaneous appearance of three force-carrying elementary particles that had never been seen together before: two particles called W bosons of opposite electric charges…

A first-principles model correctly predicts high-temperature superconducting properties and suggests a parameter that determines Tc in any high-temperature superconductor

Scientists have learned to initiate superconducting currents using "liquid light." This refers to exciton-polaritons, hybrid particles formed through the interaction of light and matter, possessing properties of both light and material particles simultaneously.

In 1938, German physicist Fritz London proposed that superfluidity is linked to the congregation of atoms into the same quantum state: a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)
