With little in the way of significant discoveries since 2012, there have been mutterings that particle physics is at a dead ...

The discovery of a new subatomic particle that is likely the elusive Higgs boson — a particle thought to give all other matter its mass — could be an important step toward uncovering the invisible ...

His theory is being taken so seriously by other scientists that the CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland will soon be used to test its validity. If proven correct Dr Petersson’s ...

More than three years ago, nearly 1 mile underground in South Dakota, in a cryogenic cylindrical chamber roughly 100 degrees ...

After discovering the Higgs Boson — the particle that helps explain why matter has mass — CERN is preparing for its next ...

Particle collisions are inherently quantum, but much of that character is lost when we turn them into classical data. Sarah Alam Malik explores whether preserving more of it could help us spot signs o ...

The world's largest particle accelerator is now preparing for its next major scientific challenge: understanding dark matter, ...
