Scattering takes place across the universe at large and miniscule scales. Billiard balls clank off each other in bars, the nuclei of atoms collide to ...

William Matthaeus, the Martin A. Pomerantz Chair of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Delaware, has won UD’s highest faculty honor — the Francis Alison Award — in recognition of his ...

Our estimates of the size of a neutrino span from smaller than an atomic nucleus to as large as a few metres, but now we are ...

"History shows us that whenever you do open a new 'energy window,' you never really know what you're going to find. It's completely unexplored." ...

NEW YORK -- A neutrino detector submerged in the Mediterranean Sea has sniffed out the most energetic ghost particle yet, scientists reported Wednesday. The newly detected neutrino is around 30 times ...

Physicists have detected the highest-energy neutrino ever felt on Earth. The neutrino, detected at the bottom of the ...

A deep-sea detector glimpsed a particle with 220 million billion electron volts of energy — around 20 times as energetic as any neutrino seen before.

The team announced its “ultrahigh energy” neutrino on Wednesday, in a paper published in the journal Nature. The finding brings physicists and astronomers one step closer to understanding just what, ...

You would have to flip 75 heads in a row on a fair coin to have the same probability of a single neutrino interacting with a ...

Undersea detectors anchored deep in the Mediterranean Sea found an ultra-high-energy neutrino, a particle that opens a new window onto the cosmos.

A “ghost particle” discovered by a detector in the Mediterranean carried 30 times more energy than any neutrino observed to ...
