The experiment successfully transported a box filled with unbonded protons across CERN’s main site, thus demonstrating that the same feat could later be possible for antiprotons.
This discovery may shed light on new physics, taking us closer to breakthroughs in particle interactions beyond the Standard Model.
In the Super Proton Synchrotron, physicists have finally measured and quantified an invisible structure that can divert the course of the particles therein, and create problems for particle research.
Teams of physicists at CERN and the University of Tokyo have both taken a major step forward towards understanding a flighty, short-lived particle.
Two large research collaboration have observed these neutrinos for the very first time, using detectors located at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland.
The new and unknown particle is just over a fifth of the mass of the Higgs boson. There's nothing in any of the current models that predicts this mass. However, It's unlikely to be physics-breaking.
More than 200 physicists and at least 850 academics from other fields have denounced the sexist talk given last week by Italian physicist Alessandro Strumia at a workshop on women in high energy physics held at CERN.
The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment (AWAKE) at CERN is a new kind of machine that could accelerate electrons over a fraction of the distance needed by other accelerators.
For the first time, physicists at CERN have observed a benchmark atomic energy transition in anithydrogen, a major step toward cooling and manipulating the basic form of antimatter.
In this case a beam of lead “atoms” traveled through the accelerator with at least one electron attached. The physicists hope to one day use these accelerated atoms in a next-generation experiment.
Large Hadron Collider general-purpose detectors ATLAS and CMS have made complimenting discoveries on the Higgs boson and top quark coupling process.
Experiment called OPERA at CERN has released its final round of results, which add further evidence of neutrinos’ strange identity-swapping behavior.
The Large Hadron Collider has once again done what it does best – smash bits of matter together and find new particles in the carnage.
Engineers at CERN took magnets originally designed for the LHC, combined them with X-ray focusing technology originally designed for space, and built a device that could spot axions arriving here from the Sun.
CERN’s CMS Experiment has organized a new pilot training program, titled “Playing with Protons,” which allows teachers to get acquainted with the basics of particle physics and subsequently transfer their experiences and knowledge to their pupils.
