Scientists have found new evidence that a pattern of “flow” observed in particles streaming ...
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 ...
This is what the creation of a Higgs Boson looks like to the Large Hadron Collider. (Credit: CERN) The Higgs boson is, if ...
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 ...
Scientists analyzing data from heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—the world's most powerful particle ...
Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...
In a historic first for the laboratory, CERN has received $1 billion in private ...
I visited CERN to tour the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which is located 100 meters beneath Geneva, Switzerland. The facility ...
The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom smasher’s eventual final retirement is also something that top scientists are now ...
The European Strategy Group tasked a working group to compare seven proposals for CERN’s next large-scale collider.
In effect, it’s lab-grown gold, but at billions of dollars for a few atoms, it’s unlikely to shake the gold market.
