Glimmers of antimatter to explain the "dark" part of the universe

A recent study suggests that the observation of antihelium nuclei in cosmic rays may be consistent with the existence of WIMP particles, which could make up dark matter. The detection of two distinct isotopes, antihelium-3 and -4, is particularly intriguing as heavier nuclei are unlikely to be produced through natural processes.

Searching for elusive supersymmetric particles

An international team of scientists, led by Professor Owen Long, explored supersymmetry as an extension of the Standard Model. They conducted experiments at the Large Hadron Collider and found no signs of supersymmetric particles, but their null result is still a significant scientific progress.

Researchers pave the way to designing omnidirectional invisible materials

A team of researchers at UPV's Nanophotonics Technology Center has discovered a new fundamental symmetry that allows the conservation of linear moment between dramatically different physical systems. This enables the design of pioneering optical, acoustic and elastic devices, including invisible omnidirectional materials.

Breaking supersymmetry

Kanazawa University researcher Hajime Moriya shows that the extended Nicolai supersymmetric fermion lattice model breaks supersymmetry and has a strictly positive energy density for any homogeneous ground state. This contradicts previous claims that supersymmetry may be restored in the infinite-volume limit.

One kind of supersymmetry shown to emerge naturally

UCSB physicist Tarun Grover has provided mathematical evidence for supersymmetry in a topological superconductor. The research, conducted with colleagues Donna Sheng and Ashvin Vishwanath, appears in the journal Science. Supersymmetry describes a unique relationship between particles, with fermions having boson superpartners.

Searching high and low for dark matter

Researchers have made significant advancements in sensitivity and believe a dark matter particle interacts with ordinary matter rarely, according to conference discussions. The hunt for dark matter continues, with the LHC yet to find evidence of supersymmetry, but potential discovery could reveal dominant form of universe-seeding matter.

Electron's shapeliness throws a curve at supersymmetry

A team of scientists at Yale and Harvard has set a new benchmark for the electron's roundness, contradicting some Supersymmetry theories. The research used a unique method to detect particles, showing that the electron is more spherical than predicted by these extensions.
