Researchers at TU/e have demonstrated that energy transfer without loss via light or heat can occur over much greater ...

The mysterious Amaterasu particle may not be a proton at all. New research suggests that some of the most extreme cosmic rays ...

Somewhere beyond the Milky Way, a natural accelerator is flinging subatomic shrapnel toward Earth at energies that dwarf anything the Large Hadron Collider can produce. On May 7, 2026, a team of ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The ancient Greeks conceived of five building blocks of matter – from bottom to top: earth, water, air, fire and aether. Aether ...

The most energetic "ghost particle" neutrino ever detected may have been blasted at Earth by blazars, black hole engines that are powerful cosmic particle accelerators.

For decades, scientists have been trying to solve a vexing problem about the weather in outer space: At unpredictable times, high-energy particles bombard the earth and objects outside the earth’s ...

Scientists may have discovered when and how high-energy particles that bombard Earth and other objects emerge from violent environments such as the sun's atmosphere. These high-energy particles pose a ...

Illustration of an array of ground-based detectors to characterize a cosmic ray shower. When high-energy cosmic particles strike the atmosphere, they produce a cascade of particles. By building a ...
