Scientists working at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider may be seeing the strongest hints yet of physics beyond the Standard Model — the decades-old theory that explains the fundamental particles and ...

An unexpected behavior in a particle decay seems to disagree with the predictions of the Standard Model, despite its high ...

The 28th Chamonix Workshop took place from 2 to 5 February 2026, with around 130 participants from CERN and several ...

When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on — but major physics experiments like the Large Hadron Collider at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known ...

Seventeen miles of underground tunnel, thousands of superconducting magnets, and protons whipped to a fraction below light speed have given the Large Hadron Collider a reputation that borders on myth.

A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...

The futurist Arthur C. Clarke famously said that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Well, a team of physicists just showed that a common particle production method ...

The European Strategy has recommended the FCC-ee as CERN’s next flagship collider. The case for it, Alain Blondel argues, ...
