Heaviest neutron star to date is a ’black widow’ eating its mate
A spinning neutron star periodically swings its radio (green) and gamma-ray (magenta) beams past Earth in this artist's concept of a black widow pulsar. The neutron star/pulsar heats the facing side of its stellar partner (right) to temperatures twice as hot as the sun's surface and slowly evaporates it.

Successful startup of particle detector aims to pin down dark matter
A new particle detector searching for dark matter has closed in on the region where physicists may detect dark matter-an elusive particle that creates 85% of the mass in the universe-all in its first four months of operation. Deep below the Black Hills of South Dakota in the Sanford Underground Research Facility, an innovative and uniquely sensitive dark matter detector- The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Dark Matter Experiment , led by Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and supported by University of Michigan researchers-has passed a check-out phase of startup operations and delivered first results.

Ten years since the discovery of the Higgs boson
Ten years ago, on 4 July 2012, an international collaboration of particle physicists announced to the world that they had independently observed a new particle - the Higgs boson. The finding came out of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN; Oxford researchers were key contributors to the discovery and have continued to play a leading role in Higgs-boson research ever since.
