Did we just see a black hole explode? Physicists think so—and it could explain (almost) everything
In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, there are no known sources anywhere in the universe ...
A virtual particle is a particle-antiparticle pair that appears "out of nowhere" (energy spontaneously converted into mass) sent off in opposite directions, but not with enough force to escape each ...
