A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday ...

We all know we live in three-dimensional space. But what does it mean when people talk about four dimensions? Is it just a ...

In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, that distinction gets a bit murky.

NPR's Ayesha Rascoe speaks to Esra Barlas Yücel, a researcher at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, about Fermilab's most precise measurements of the muon particle's magnetic wobble. It's ...

The CDF Collaboration at Fermilab has confirmed that a subatomic particle called the Bs meson flips between matter and ...

A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden extra dimensions. These dimensions could twist and evolve over time, forming ...

We tend not to dwell on the fact that we exist in three dimensions. Forwards-back, left-right, up-down; these are the axes on which we navigate the world. When we try to imagine something else, it ...
