Although its existence had been theorized for decades, the Higgs boson was finally observed to exist in 2012 at the Large ...

Yeah! Science! Scientists at the CERN Large Hadron Collider – the most powerful particle accelerator ever built – have detected the heaviest form of antimatter observed. This discovery is as important ...

The world’s most powerful particle accelerator has shattered every previous record, marking a pivotal moment for scientific exploration. In 2025, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) generated more ...

Since inaugural operations began in 2008, the LHC has allowed researchers to probe some of the universe’s most profound and mysterious forces. But investigating the deepest questions of modern physics ...

In a recent experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN produced particles believed to have only existed in the moments following the Big Bang. This remarkable achievement offers valuable ...

Oh, bollocks! When CERN's Large Hadron Collider started up this past September, we figured it was only a matter of time before the world as we knew it imploded. Thus, we did as any reasonable group of ...

Deep in the heart of the matter, some numbers don't add up. For example, while protons and neutrons are made of quarks, nature's fundamental building blocks bound together by gluons, their masses are ...

LHC experiments don’t create large gold nuggets — but some particles within a beam of lead ions can turn into gold for about a microsecond. The dream of seventeenth-century alchemists has been ...

For centuries, great thinkers of the Greco-Roman, Islamic, Medieval, and even early Enlightenment worlds investigated the possibilities of alchemy—the process of transforming base metals (i.e. lead) ...

Top minds at the world’s largest atom smasher have released a blueprint for a much bigger successor that could vastly improve research into the remaining enigmas of physics. The plans for the Future ...
