Researchers from TUM, working at CERN, have made a groundbreaking discovery that reveals how deuterons are formed. Another long-standing question in particle physics has been answered. Scientists ...

At the world’s most powerful colliders, physicists are finally catching sight of particles that almost never leave a trace, a “ghost” signal that has haunted theory for decades. The detection of these ...

Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that question, as bizarre as it seems, could tell scientists something very ...

The vast majority of data collected at the LHC particle accelerator is automatically sorted out. Nevertheless, over an exabyte has now been archived.

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.

Behind every particle collision generated at the Large Hadron Collider is a multitude of technical feats. One of these is ...

For these physicists at CU Boulder, searching for the unknown is a matter of speed. Over the last decade, researchers on campus, including dozens of graduate and undergraduate students, have taken ...

The upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider will allow scientists to better study known phenomena and to search for new ones. Deep beneath the Franco-Swiss border lives the Large Hadron Collider, a ...

Xavier Niel, the French tech billionaire, and John Elkann, the chairperson of Ferrari, have also pledged money to the project ...
