A supercharged neutrino that smashed into our planet in 2023 may have been spit out by an exploding primordial black hole with a "dark charge." If true, this theory could lead to a definitive catalog ...
The Sun unleashes a torrent of charged particles. Some of them slam into the Earth’s atmosphere, triggering breathtaking auroras in the night sky. But for equipment that’s orbiting our planet in outer ...
"If our hypothesized dark charge is true, then we believe there could be a significant population of primordial black holes, which would be consistent with other astrophysical observations, and ...
Cosmic rays are extremely fast, charged particles that travel through space at nearly the speed of light. The Amaterasu particle was detected in 2021 by the Telescope Array experiment in the U.S. It ...
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Exploding trees may be taking over your social media feed, but a local gardening expert says you are unlikely to see them in your own backyard. Rick Vuyst, the former CEO ...
When the universe first burst into being, all of space was a cosmic cauldron filled with a roiling, fiery liquid of fundamental particles heated to trillions of degrees. But this seething primordial ...
The expolision of a black hole could explain the origins of a mysterious high-energy neutrino detected in 2023, as well as shedding more light on the mystery of dark matter in the process. In 2023, a ...
When temperatures drop suddenly, trapped water can freeze and expand, splitting trunks with a gunshot-like sound During the recent cold spell in the northern US, meteorologists issued warnings about ...
Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A 220 PeV neutrino may have come from an exploding primordial black hole with a hidden “dark charge,” researchers report. (CREDIT: ...
Black holes are born from the explosive deaths of stars. But can black holes themselves explode? Nobody knows for sure — but if they can, a team of scientists argue they may have spotted evidence of ...
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered experimental evidence that particles of matter emerging from energetic subatomic smashups retain a key ...
Fundamental particles called quarks can be created in quantum-correlated pairs. These correlations can be passed on to larger particles that form from the quarks. The strong force differs from others ...
