The origin of neutrino masses is one of the most pressing issues in particle physics. After the discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider, researchers learned how the charged fermions ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something particles simply possess, a built-in feature explained by the Higgs field but not fully illuminated by it. A new wave of research is now ...

A dramatic discovery in spintronics is the unusual magnetoresistance (UMR), where the resistivity of a heavy metal in contact with a magnetic insulator varies with the rotation of magnetization in the ...
