The old fantasy of transforming lead into gold is now a reality, made possible by some wildly inefficient physics at the ...

Mark Thomson takes the reins at the CERN particle-physics lab, which recently received $1bn in private donations for its next ...

The Large Hadron Collider is heading for another extended shutdown, a planned pause that will take the world’s most powerful accelerator offline just as its current run reaches full stride. Far from ...

In a historic first for the laboratory, CERN has received $1 billion in private ...

For a while, in the Middle Ages, there was a real craze for trying to turn unassuming lead into pure, gleaming gold. Perhaps those ancient alchemists should have been building a particle collider.

The European Strategy Group tasked a working group to compare seven proposals for CERN’s next large-scale collider.

This is what the creation of a Higgs Boson looks like to the Large Hadron Collider. (Credit: CERN) The Higgs boson is, if ...

I visited CERN to tour the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which is located 100 meters beneath Geneva, Switzerland. The facility ...

Türkiye has been an associate member state of CERN since 2015 and takes part in major experiments such as ATLAS and CMS, ...

Scientists analyzing data from heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—the world's most powerful particle ...

In a recent study, ALICE scientists measured the way that lead ions colliding in the LHC sometimes transform into gold and other new nuclei. As a small child, physicist Chiara Oppedisano read the ...

Following a two-year shutdown for maintenance and upgrades, Ned Stafford looks at how the LHC has been improved to allow researchers to hunt for new particles Power boost The upgrade and maintenance ...
