Geared for discovery more so than delicacy, the LHC is defying expectations by rivalling lepton colliders for precision.
Hybrid pixel detectors are changing the face of societal applications such as X-ray imaging.
A photographic journey linking CERN’s early years to ongoing research.
An interview with Eliezer Rabinovici, the president of the CERN Council.
Matthew McCullough argues that beyond-the-Standard Model physics may be most strongly expressed in the Higgs self-coupling.
Inspired by CERN’s international teacher programme and visits to other major labs, Joe Muise has found a powerful way to inspire physics students.
By parking events triggered by a single muon, CMS collected an inclusive sample of approximately 10 billion b-hadrons in 2018.

The platform technologies that underpin Europe’s large-scale research facilities
The third update of the European strategy for particle physics is underway.
Radio frequency (RF) systems are central to particle accelerators, and they require a wide variety of test and measurement equipment in both their developmental and operational sta...
This relationship, initiated in 2000, has not only endured but also set a benchmark for managing and evolving complex control systems. Rigorous selection process In the late 1990s,...
Klystron modulators are key elements in free electron lasers. They provide high-voltage pulses to bias klystron tubes with energies of several hundred joules. Amplitude variations ...
Supersymmetry (SUSY) provides elegant solutions to many of the problems of the Standard Model (SM) by introducing new boson/fermion partners for each SM fermion/boson, and by exten...
Recently, researchers at the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov observatory in Mexico reported the observation of ultra-high energy (> 100 TeV) gamma rays from the central region of...
The ALICE collaboration has measured an interference pattern at the femtometre scale using ultra-peripheral collisions between lead nuclei at the LHC.
The Chamonix Workshop upheld its long tradition of fostering open and collaborative discussions within CERN’s accelerator and physics communities.
The ALICE analysis sought to distinguish between the Lund string fragmentation and statistical hadronisation models.
The Bonn event was an important step in building consensus in the German community for a future collider project at CERN.
The ATLAS collaboration recently compiled a series of results targeting HH decays to bbγγ, bbττ, bbbb, bbℓℓ plus missing transverse energy, and multilepton final states.
The measurement benefits from the unique forward coverage of the LHCb detector.
