When dust sticks to a surface or a lizard sits on a ceiling, it is due to "nature's invisible glue." Researchers at Chalmers ...

DURHAM, N.H.—Research from a team of physicists at the University of New Hampshire is advancing the understanding of how protons, which comprise 95% of the mass of the visible universe, interact with ...

The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detect rare events on a daily basis, but some are exceptionally rare, such as this latest result from the CMS collaboration. For the first time, the ...

Electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force are two distinct fundamental forces. That wasn’t always the case. How many fundamental forces are there in our universe? For particle physicists, answering ...

The experiment at CERN produced pairs of electron and positron beams, propagating into an ambient plasma. The international team of researchers found that the beams were narrow and nearly parallel, ...

A test to measure a leading candidate for dark energy, a fifth fundamental force called the chameleon force, has found no evidence that it is real. The researchers behind the test say this rules out ...

The ATLAS collaboration recently measured the strength of the strong force to a record level of precision, but there’s still a long way to go toward understanding this fundamental force. In September, ...

There may be a fifth fundamental force of the universe that we haven’t documented yet — and, according to new research, our best bet of uncovering it may not lie in deep space, but in objects ...
