Scientists push into the 'zeptoverse' below the atom
Original: 100 billion times smaller than atom, scientists explore 'zeptoverse'
Physicists are exploring scales roughly 100 billion times smaller than an atom, a frontier dubbed the 'zeptoverse' after the zepto prefix denoting one sextillionth. The work probes subatomic and nuclear dimensions far beyond standard microscopy, relying on particle accelerators and indirect measurement. Reports highlight it as the next extreme in studying matter's smallest building blocks.
Why now: Fresh coverage of frontier physics research at unprecedentedly small scales has caught public interest
