A recent study has proposed a new mechanism for the formation of primordial black holes that could provide answers about dark matter.

An elusive particle that first formed in the hot, dense maelstrom of the early universe has puzzled physicists for decades.

Calculations of charge distribution in mesons provide benchmark for experimental measurements and validate widely used 'factorization' method for imaging the building blocks of matter.

So-called “XYZ states” defy the standard picture of particle behavior and have given rise to several attempts to understand their nature. But researchers with the Center for Theoretical and ...

Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have used supercomputer simulations to predict electric charge distributions in ...

Based on an experiment at CERN, a collaboration led by the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, can predict hitherto unchartered changes in the shape of nuclei.

When we go backwards in time through the history of the cosmos, the distances and volumes shrink, while the average energy ...

Scientists have demonstrated a new way to use high-energy particle smashups at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) to reveal subtle details about the shapes of atomic nuclei. The method is ...
