The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.

The Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015 was awarded for the discovery of neutrino oscillations, which showed that neutrinos have mass. This discovery kicked off a global effort to better understand ...

A Nova aka a New Star is a sudden outburst on the surface of a white dwarf (remnant of a dead star) when it pulls enough material from its companion in a binary system. The companion is usually a star ...
