Top quark data may encode quantum magic, but the closer scientists look, the more selection, modeling, and proof matter every ...

Deep beneath the serene landscape straddling the border of France and Switzerland, a marvel of modern science and engineering lies in wait. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, a massive particle ...

A new theory suggests the universe’s greatest secrets are hiding in a “zeptouniverse” that’s ready to be explored—without ...

Scientists at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) say they are planning to build a new world’s biggest particle collider. They say a major stage of the feasibility study into the ...

This kind of ‘magic’ could lead to a computer revolution.

Particles rush through a long tunnel in the Large Hadron Collider. Maximilien Brice/CERN, CC BY-SA When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics ...

Before the RHIC shut down, it was the only operational particle collider in the U.S. and one of two heavy-ion colliders in the world, the other being the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.

The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle ...

CERN took the latter approach when it built the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 17-mile (27 kilometers) particle accelerator that smashes protons together with so much energy they fracture into ...

The Large Hadron Collider is the most advanced and complex machine ever built by humanity, and it's allowed us to study the inner workings of the universe in unprecedented ways. However, there's only ...

The Future Circular Collider would have a circumference of 91 kilometres, at an average depth of 200 metres Mark Thomson is the new director-general at the European Organization for Nuclear Research ...

Mark Thomson, the new head of Europe's physics laboratory CERN, voiced confidence Tuesday about raising the billions of dollars needed to build by far the world's biggest particle accelerator. CERN, ...
