A new species of cable bacteria, which function like electrical wiring, was recently discovered in the US. Its unique ...

The discovery — made at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, near Geneva — has revealed that a short-lived cousin of protons and neutrons, the beauty-lambda baryon, decays at a different rate than ...

As if atoms weren’t already mind-blowingly small, never mind subatomic particles, CERN researchers in the CMS Collaboration were sifting through data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and ...

Protons and neutrons are the heaviest particles in an atom and as a result they make up most of its mass. The mass of electrons is very small and often not considered to be significant.

The universe began with mostly hydrogen, helium, and tiny amounts of lithium. Heavier elements came later, forged in stars ...
