In 1937, Ettore Majorana asked a question nobody else was even thinking about: does a particle have to have a distinct antiparticle? For neutrinos — which carry no charge —

Since its launch in December 2024, the European Space Agency’s Proba-3 mission, which comprises two satellites, has successfully generated 57 artificial solar eclipses, yielding over 250 hours of high-resolution video
Neutrinos have mass — yet they never flip between left- and right-handed states the way every other massive particle does. The most logical fix is Paul Dirac’s: invisible right-handed neutrinos
Scientists have found that young stellar cousins of our sun are calming down and dimming more quickly in their X-ray output than previously thought, according to a new study using
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) rank among the most powerful explosions in the universe, releasing immense energy in intense flashes of gamma rays. The most distant GRBs originate from the era when
Pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions of our experiments compared to phase diagram of the CO2–H2O system. Red dots correspond to actual P–T conditions at various stages of ice preparation. Dashed lines are
NCCR PlanetS This chapter reviews the current state of observational and theoretical efforts in the characterization of exoplanet atmospheres, with a focus on developments enabled through the Swiss National Centre
TAMPA, Fla. — The European Space Agency has picked Canadian small satellite operator Kepler Communications to lead a hosted payload mission to test terminal interoperability for HydRON, ESA’s flagship optical
