The masses of fundamental particles such as the Z and W bosons could have arisen from the twisted geometry of hidden ...

A recent study published in Nuclear Physics B examines how hidden dimensions might influence the physical reality that we ...

Physicists have long treated mass as a basic ingredient of nature, something particles simply possess, even as the Higgs mechanism explained only part of the story. A new wave of theoretical work now ...

The geometry of space, where physical laws unfold, may also hold answers to some of the deepest questions in fundamental physics. The very structure of spacetime might underlie every interaction in ...

Researchers attempting to solve the problem of dark matter have proposed a particle that can travel to an unseen fifth dimension. The work is entirely hypothetical, as it attempts to explain a type of ...

Our universe may be hiding extra dimensions just beyond the reach of current experiments — and they could be the key to unlocking two of the most stubborn mysteries in physics. A new theoretical study ...

Researchers from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, in collaboration with Huzhou University, discovered ...

Unlike regular computers where data is stored in binary bits as 0 or 1, the “qubits” in quantum computers can exist as both at the same time. Stranger still, this information can be effectively ...
