Subatomic: An Atom Building Game (Adapted for use in the science classroom) OVERVIEW. This lesson utilizes an adaptation of the board game Subatomic: An Atom Building Game to help students learn about ...

Discover the fascinating world of particle physics — the most fundamental building blocks of the universe and the forces that connect them.

The peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon in a U.S. laboratory experiment is making scientists increasingly suspect they are missing something in their understanding of physics ...

The Standard Model is the modern physical understanding of three of the four forces of nature: electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force.

A tiny subatomic particle appears to be disobeying the laws of physics in a way that scientists say could change our fundamental understanding of how the universe works. The “particle celebre ...

New technology helps archaeologists explore the past 03:37. Naples, Italy — Beneath the honking horns and operatic yelling of Naples, the most blissfully chaotic city in Italy, archeologist ...

A few years ago, a group of physicists created an unusual, never-before-seen subatomic particle. Using a particle accelerator at Riken, a Japanese research institute, they slammed streams of ...

Protons Contain a Subatomic Particle That’s Heavier Than the Proton Itself Surprise! But when the charm quark is present, it still only accounts for around half of the proton’s mass.

If the results are confirmed, the so-called X17 particle could help to explain dark matter, the mysterious substance scientists believe accounts for more than 80 percent of the mass in the universe.

The particle has two heavy quarks -- both of a type that are called "charm" -- and a light one. In the natural world, baryons have at most one heavy quark. The Collider 12:13 ...

Meet the subatomic particle that might be breaking the rules of physics. A group of scientists has revealed a finding that has the potential to unravel our understanding of the universe.
