CERN has just upgraded the world’s largest particle accelerator after successfully powering a new ...

The famous particle accelerator has gone silent, but its next chapter could usher in a new era of particle physics.

The Large Hadron Collider, the world’s largest atom smasher, has shut down for a planned 4-year upgrade that will make it 10 times more sensitive than its initial version.

CERN shuts down the Large Hadron Collider for four years to prepare a major upgrade that could transform particle physics.

New experimental results show particles called muons can be corralled into beams suitable for high-energy collisions, paving the way for new physics. Particle accelerators are best known for colliding ...

Right now, over in Europe, the world’s most powerful particle accelerator in history — the Large Hadron Collider — is once again colliding particles in record fashion: at the highest energies and with ...

A study has been published in Nuclear Science and Techniques, by researchers led by Prof. Hua Zheng from Shaanxi Normal University, heralding a significant breakthrough in high-energy particle physics ...

A vast underground tunnel system stretching 22.5 kilometres still lies hidden beneath the fields of Texas, marking the ...

A snapshot of a computer simulation showing how energy density changes over time in the collision of a lead ion with a photon emitted by another lead ion. The world’s largest and most powerful ...
