Researchers have found compelling evidence for an exotic new form of matter that could finally explain how particles gain mass—one of physics' greatest unsolved questions. The discovery shows that particles can actually weigh less when surrounded by dense nuclear matter, bringing scientists closer to understanding the fundamental forces that shape our universe.
