Machine learning could help reveal undiscovered particles within data from the Large Hadron Collider
Scientists used a neural network, a type of brain-inspired machine learning algorithm, to sift through large volumes of particle collision data. Particle physicists are tasked with mining this massive and growing store of collision data for evidence.....»»
Neutron stars could be heating up from dark matter annihilation
One of the big mysteries about dark matter particles is whether they interact with each other. We still don't know the exact nature of what dark matter is. Some models argue that dark matter only interacts gravitationally, but many more posit that da.....»»

As a Dyson stan, I wouldn"t tell anyone to buy the Dyson 360 Vis Nav robot vacuum
Dyson says that its 360 Vis Nav is the most powerful robot vacuum on the market. Could this robot vacuum that doesn't mop or self-empty possibly be worth $1,199.99? I'll be the first person to tell someone to just grow up and buy a Dyson rather.....»»
iRobot Roomba Combo j9+ vs. iRobot Roomba Combo Essential: Which is better for you?
The iRobot Roomba Combo j9+ is a highly autonomous robot vacuum, but how does it stack up to the more affordable (and newer) Roomba Combo Essential?.....»»
Searching for new asymmetry between matter and antimatter
Once a particle of matter, always a particle of matter. Or not. Thanks to a quirk of quantum physics, four known particles made up of two different quarks—such as the electrically neutral D meson composed of a charm quark and an up antiquark—can.....»»
Retention ponds can deliver a substantial reduction in tire particle pollution, study suggests
Retention ponds and wetlands constructed as part of major road schemes can reduce the quantities of tire particles entering the aquatic environment by an average of 75%, new research has shown......»»

Physicists track how continuous changes in dimensionality affect collective properties of a superfluid
An international research team from Innsbruck and Geneva has, for the first time, probed the dimensional crossover for ultracold quantum matter. In the regime between one and two dimensions, the quantum particles perceive their world as being 1D or 2.....»»
Study finds microbes hitchhike on microplastics to reach the sea
The oceans contain large amounts of microplastics, particles that are less than 5 mm in size. In parts of the Baltic Sea, the concentration of microplastics can be as much as 3,300 particles per cubic meter. The microplastics end up in aquatic enviro.....»»
Microplastic concentrations in Antarctic seawater higher than previously estimated
Microplastic particles can be found in the most remote ocean regions on Earth. In Antarctica, pollution levels are even higher than previously assumed. This is one finding of a recent study involving researchers from the University of Basel......»»

Research team exerts electrical control over polaritons, hybridized light-matter particles, at room temperature
A research team has pioneered an innovative technique in ultra-high-resolution spectroscopy. Their breakthrough marks the world's first instance of electrically controlling polaritons—hybridized light-matter particles—at room temperature. The res.....»»
Computing how quantum states overlap
Quantum many-body systems are things such as atomic nuclei that consist of many tiny particles moving in complex ways. This makes it extremely difficult to predict how the systems behave as the particles interact. To study these systems, researchers.....»»
FASER measures high-energy neutrino interaction strength
Operating at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) since 2022, the FASER experiment is designed to search for extremely weakly interacting particles. Such particles are predicted by many theories beyond the Standard Model that are attempting to solve ou.....»»
