Matter and antimatter behave differently. Scientists hope that investigating how might someday explain why we exist.

The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation has awarded $13.5 million for an international effort to build a working particle accelerator the size of a shoebox based on an innovative technology known as “accelerator on a chip.”

Researchers are searching for a quantum theory of gravity that could help answer fundamental questions about the universe, from the very first moments after the Big Bang to the physics of black holes.

The medal, which recognizes distinguished physicists for outstanding statesmanship in science, honors Quinn for her work in science education.

It’s not easy being clean.

Not only are we made of fundamental particles, we also produce them and are constantly bombarded by them throughout the day.

Researchers hope that the new experiment will shine light on how elementary neutrinos morph from one type into another.

The American Physical Society has recognized both researchers for their leading role in SLAC’s BABAR experiment, which confirmed theorists’ description of how nature treats matter and antimatter differently.

Takaaki Kajita and Arthur B. McDonald received the call from Sweden for their work on the Super-Kamiokande and SNO experiments.
