There's a problem with the field of high-energy physics, and it's the biggest one imaginable. On the one hand, we have the Standard Model of particle physics: a quantum field theory that describes the ...

For decades, physicists searched for a missing piece of nature's puzzle, an elusive particle believed to explain why matter ...

Our present understanding of fundamental physics is built on the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics and General Relativity (GR), Einstein’s theory of gravitation. Particle physics is described by ...

Ten years in, the Large Hadron Collider has failed to deliver the exciting discoveries that scientists promised. By Sabine Hossenfelder Dr. Hossenfelder is a research fellow at the Frankfurt Institute ...
