Is there any such thing as a "free lunch?" Perhaps the Universe is the ultimate free lunch, and the fact that energy isn't conserved is why

Here’s what happens when quark-gluon plasma ‘splashes’ during the most energetic particle collisions…
New data from particle collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), an "atom smasher", reveals how the primordial soup generated in the most energetic particle collisions "splashes" sideways when it is hit by a jet of energetic particles... #physics #particlephysics #rhic #quarks #gluons #plasma

In our Earthly labs, we can accelerate particles up to ~TeV energies. But there are far stronger astronomical PeVatrons out there, and we're finally locating them right in our galaxy
The magnetic moment of the muon revisited
A couple of years ago I posted an item about a measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, a quantity usually known as (g-2). At the time this appeared to be in conflict with the predictions of the standard model (SM)of particle physics but the general opinion among experts was that the problem was likely to lie with the calculations rather than the experiment.
Well, catching up on things I missed during examination marking season, I refer you to a substantial paper (188 pages long) that appeared on arXiv on 27th May 2025, with the abstract:
If this is too small to read I direct yourself to the salient point, namely that “there is no tension between the SM and experiment at the current level of precision”.
It seems the Standard Model survives to fight another day…

Without dark matter, galactic rotation and cosmic structure would show minor differences. Oddly, the biggest change would probably be a Universe where life was difficult-to-impossible
Why can't you take a Higgs Boson out for a spin?
Because it doesn't have any!!

The KATRIN experiment just gave us our tightest-ever constraint on neutrino masses: 1.1 million times lighter than the electron, at least. Would like to speak to the manager

Even Stephen Hawking said there was no such thing as time before the Big Bang. But his reasoning was fatally flawed. Even today, it remains a great unsolved puzzle

The Universe first formed stable, neutral atoms just 380,000 years after the Big Bang. If not for the miracle of quantum physics, it would've taken more than twice as long
