Advanced neutron facilities such as the Institut Laue-Langevin are gearing up to enable a deeper understanding of the structural workings of SARS-CoV-2.
A new generation of accelerator and reactor experiments is opening an era of high-precision neutrino measurements.
A global network of ultra-sensitive optical atomic magnetometers – GNOME – has begun its search for exotic fields beyond the Standard Model.
Boris Kayser explains how neutrino physicists are now closing in on a crucial piece of evidence on the origin of the matter–antimatter asymmetry observed in the Universe.
The observation of the electroweak production of W±W±, WZ and ZZ boson pairs is an essential milestone towards precision tests at the LHC.
The result could shape policies for reducing urban particle pollution.
