In the coming weeks, Symmetry will explore the ways scientists are using artificial intelligence to advance particle physics and astrophysics—in a series of articles written and illustrated entirely ...

Scientists in the particle physics community are bringing environmental and climate issues to the table in discussions about future research. Using a particle collider requires a lot of energy. For ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in equations rather than explained from first principles. A new proposal argues that ...

So-called “higher symmetries” are illuminating everything from particle decays to the behavior of complex quantum systems. For that reason, research across physics is now building to a crescendo. It ...

Theoretical physicists have established a close connection between the two rapidly developing fields in theoretical physics, quantum information theory and non-invertible symmetries in particle and ...
