At CERN’s Large Hadron Collider on the edge of Geneva, scientists have reported a surprising twist in the behavior of matter.

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

Something odd is happening deep inside the data streams from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. A set of “forbidden” patterns in how unstable particles decay, combined with rare Higgs events and a ...

A new theory suggests the universe’s greatest secrets are hiding in a “zeptouniverse” that’s ready to be explored—without waiting until 2070 for a new collider.

In a cavernous tunnel beneath the French–Swiss border, physicists have briefly recreated conditions that existed microseconds after the Big Bang and, in the process, knocked lead atoms into becoming ...

A new heat exchange system between the LHC and the French town of Ferney-Voltaire is directing waste heat energy from CERN's accelerator to warm thousands of homes and businesses.

A single subatomic particle that hit Earth in 2023 carried roughly 100,000 times more energy than anything humanity has ever ...

CERN's Large Hadron Collider now heats thousands of French homes with waste heat, turning particle physics research into practical energy savings.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can now chalk up one more use, alongside discovering the Higgs boson and other subatomic particles: heating French homes. With the new thermal recycling system ...

Seventeen miles of underground tunnel, thousands of superconducting magnets, and protons whipped to a fraction below light ...

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.

Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon plasma that filled the universe just after the Big Bang really was a ...
