In collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, hotter than the Sun’s core by a staggering margin, scientists have finally solved a long-standing mystery: how delicate particles like deuterons and ...

Deep beneath the serene landscape straddling the border of France and Switzerland, a marvel of modern science and engineering lies in wait. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, a massive particle ...

The Large Hadron Collider will be shut down, paving the way for a major upgrade, and perhaps its eventual, even bigger ...

Medieval alchemists toiled unsuccessfully to change lead into gold, but physicists at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland had better luck – though for only a microsecond. Instead of alchemy, ...

For a while, in the Middle Ages, there was a real craze for trying to turn unassuming lead into pure, gleaming gold. Perhaps those ancient alchemists should have been building a particle collider.

The Large Hadron Collider is entering a rare quiet spell, with its proton collisions halted so engineers can prepare the ...

For these physicists at CU Boulder, searching for the unknown is a matter of speed. Over the last decade, researchers on campus, including dozens of graduate and undergraduate students, have taken ...

Event display in the signal region from data taken in 2018. The pixel tracklet candidate with p T = 1.2 TeV is shown by the red solid line and other inner detector tracks by the thin orange lines.
