The old fantasy of transforming lead into gold is now a reality, made possible by some wildly inefficient physics at the ...

New director-general Mark Thomson discusses fundraising efforts and future priorities for Europe’s particle-physics ...

Mark Thomson takes the reins at the CERN particle-physics lab, which recently received $1bn in private donations for its next ...

In a historic first for the laboratory, CERN has received $1 billion in private ...

Some have argued that the good agreement between lattice–QCD and the final measurement of Fermilab’s muon g–2 experiment ...

I visited CERN to tour the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which is located 100 meters beneath Geneva, Switzerland. The facility ...

The European Strategy Group tasked a working group to compare seven proposals for CERN’s next large-scale collider.

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

The next head of Europe's CERN physics laboratory said Thursday that he favoured moving forward with plans for a giant particle collider far more powerful than the collider that discovered the famous ...
