Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: When scientists at the Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire, or CERN, in Switzerland want to study the subatomic world, they first need to ...

Scientists have developed a powerful analysis method for live cell microscopy images in order to track the movements of biological particles in a cell. This so-called probabilistic particle tracking ...

Researchers have created a single nanoparticle that can be tracked in real time with MRI as it homes in on cancer cells, tags them with a fluorescent dye and kills them with heat. The all-in-one ...

Researchers from the University of Cambridge have seemingly achieved the impossible — they've discovered a way to observe mysterious quantum particles even without directly observing them. How does ...

A new trigger system will expand what ATLAS scientists can look for during high-energy collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. For its next big performance, the Large Hadron Collider will restart in ...

Bernese researchers have taken an important step towards new measurement methods such as quantum spectroscopy. In an experiment, they succeeded in uncovering part of the mystery surrounding the ...

Air pollution causes health problems and is attributable to some 50,000 annual deaths in the United States, but not all air pollutants pack the same punch. Scientists have tracked the scope of "PM 2.5 ...

We demonstrate a method for the spatial tracking of individual particles, dispersed in a fluid host, via Raman spectroscopy. The effect of moving a particle upon the intensity of different bands ...

Muons are one of the key subatomic particles for discovering new physics, but tracking them after particle collisions can be difficult and prone to error. A new study ...
