Physicists, who dedicate their lives to studying the topic, don’t actually seem to like physics very much since they’re always hoping it’s broken. But we’ll have to forgive them; finding out that a ...
In a new study published in EPJ D, researchers have clearly identified particular areas where discrepancies arise between theoretical and experimental measurements of helium ionization by an impacting ...
Which is your favourite chemical element? To mark the International Year of the Periodic Table, our science journalists will be arguing for their pick from the 118 known elements. In this instalment, ...
When people talk about evidence for the Big Bang, they’re most likely to point to the Cosmic Microwave Background. But there’s another major piece of evidence that the Big Bang happened, and it ...
Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) are energetic particles traveling across the Galaxy as high-energy beams, and are a unique probe to explore the astrophysical particle accelerators and the interstellar ...
