Paraparticles: The Third Kingdom of Quantum Matter That Could Redefine Physics

Suhail Ahmed

In the quiet confines of a pandemic-era dorm room, a graduate student’s mathematical curiosity stumbled upon something extraordinary: a solution so peculiar it hinted at a fundamental oversight in our understanding of quantum reality. What Zhiyuan Wang discovered that afternoon in 2021 would eventually challenge a cornerstone of modern physics: the strict division of all ...

Beauty Particle Discovery: Unlocking New Physics at the Large Hadron Collider

April Joy Jovita

Physicists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have made a groundbreaking discovery that could reshape our understanding of the universe. The detection of charge-parity (CP) violation in beauty-lambda baryons, a short-lived cousin of protons and neutrons, offers new insights into why matter dominates over antimatter in the cosmos. The Significance of CP Violation CP violation ...

Beneath the Ice: Antarctica Emits Mysterious Radio Pulses That Shouldn’t Exist — Are They Clues to Dark Matter?

Jan Otte

Deep under Antarctica’s frozen surface, something unworkable is happening. Scientists have found odd radio pulses from below the ice signals that violate accepted physics rules. Captured by instruments floating eighteen miles (29km) above the continent, these enigmatic emissions seem to start at angles thirty degrees below the surface, a path that should be physically impossible. ...
