(PhysOrg.com) -- Physicists at Queen Mary, University of London have begun looking deep into the Earth to study some of nature's weirdest particles; neutrinos. http://www.physorg.com/news180036183.html Physics Mon, 14 Dec 2009 18:50:02 EST news180036183 (PhysOrg.com) -- Physicists from the Japanese-led multi-national T2K neutrino collaboration announced today that over the weekend they detected the first events generated by their newly built neutrino beam at the J-PARC accelerator laboratory in Tokai, Japan. http://www.physorg.com/news178300806.html Physics Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:01:48 EST news178300806 (PhysOrg.com) -- A consortium led by UC Davis physics professor Robert Svoboda will design the world's largest neutrino detector under a $4.4 million contract recently awarded by the National Science Foundation. http://www.physorg.com/news174731920.html Physics Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:49:21 EST news174731920 (PhysOrg.com) -- Black holes are invading stars, providing a radical explanation to bright flashes in the universe that are one of the biggest mysteries in astronomy today. http://www.physorg.com/news172485915.html Space & Earth Fri, 18 Sep 2009 09:45:40 EST news172485915 (PhysOrg.com) -- Back in 2006, PAMELA (a Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-nuclei Astrophysics) was launched with the purpose of detecting cosmic radiation and looking for clues pointing to dark matter. And now it's possible that PAMELA might have already spotted dark matter. http://www.physorg.com/news170436249.html Physics Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:24:43 EST news170436249 Will the universe expand outward for all of eternity and end in a vast, dark, cold, sterile, diffuse nothingness? Or will the `Big Bang` - the gargantuan explosion that formed the universe 14 billion years ago - end in the `Big Crunch?` Planets, stars and galaxies all hurtle inward and collapse into an incredibly hot, dense mass a billion times smaller than the period at the end of this sentence. And then … KA-BOOOOM!!! Another Big Bang and another universe forms and hurtles outward, eventually leading to new iterations of the Sun, the Earth, and you? http://www.physorg.com/news169481109.html Physics Sun, 16 Aug 2009 09:00:02 EST news169481109 (AP) -- Far below the Black Hills of South Dakota, crews are building the world's deepest underground science lab at a depth equivalent to more than six Empire State buildings - a place uniquely suited to scientists' quest for mysterious particles known as dark matter. http://www.physorg.com/news164915655.html Physics Mon, 22 Jun 2009 18:54:55 EST news164915655 (PhysOrg.com) -- Construction begins this month on a cutting-edge physics laboratory in northern Minnesota, supported by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Congressman James Oberstar of Minnesota and Congressman Bill Foster of Illinois today are joining officials from the U.S. Department of Energy, Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of Minnesota to break ground for NOvA, the world`s most advanced neutrino experiment. http://www.physorg.com/news160405383.html Physics Fri, 01 May 2009 14:04:04 EST news160405383 (PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists of the DZero collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have achieved the world's most precise measurement of the mass of the W boson by a single experiment. Combined with other measurements, the reduced uncertainty of the W boson mass will lead to stricter bounds on the mass of the elusive Higgs boson. http://www.physorg.com/news156002472.html Physics Wed, 11 Mar 2009 15:02:14 EST news156002472 (PhysOrg.com) -- As the 2008-09 Antarctic drilling season concludes, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory is on track to be finished as planned in 2011. http://www.physorg.com/news154792355.html Physics Wed, 25 Feb 2009 13:53:19 EST news154792355 Physicists working to disprove "Lorentz invariance" -- Einstein's prediction that matter and massless particles will behave the same no matter how they're turned or how fast they go -- won't get that satisfaction from muon neutrinos, at least for the time being, says a consortium of scientists. http://www.physorg.com/news143295554.html Physics Wed, 15 Oct 2008 13:19:14 EST news143295554 In the quest to better understand one of nature's most "ghostly" elementary particles - the neutrino - scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory are spreading their expertise from the mines of Canada to the mountains of China. Richard L. Hahn, a senior chemist at Brookhaven Lab, will discuss some of the neutrino's mysterious properties and two new neutrino research projects at the 236th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society on Tuesday, August 19, 2008. http://www.physorg.com/news138374825.html Physics Tue, 19 Aug 2008 14:27:05 EST news138374825
