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.

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

As particle accelerator technology moves into the high-luminosity era, the need for extreme precision and unprecedented collision energy keeps growing. Given also the Laboratory's desire to reduce ...

CERN's large hadron collider is responsible for discovering the Higgs boson particle in 2012, which confirmed a hypothesis ...

Xsuite drew CERN's fragmented beam-simulation tools into a single framework, used to operate existing colliders, design ...

Ten years after discovering the Higgs boson, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is preparing to start colliding protons at astonishing levels to unravel more mysteries of the universe. The world's ...

From the outside, the high-speed collisions of atomic nuclei inside particle accelerators like CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may seem like they have very little in common with more mundane ...

Whenever SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's linear accelerator is on, packs of around a billion electrons each travel together at nearly the speed of light through metal piping. These electron ...

Scientists have developed a new machine-learning platform that makes the algorithms that control particle beams and lasers smarter than ever before. Their work could help lead to the development of ...

TO GET to Edda Gschwendtner’s experiment, you enter a small, brutalist building at CERN, Europe’s particle physics laboratory on the outskirts of Geneva, Switzerland. You head into the lift and ...
