Frank Wilczek explains why the Higgs sector could act as a portal through which to access a wide class of “phantom” particles that might otherwise elude detection.
Gerard ’t Hooft reflects on how renormalisation elevated the Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism to a consistent theory capable of making testable predictions.
The masses of the Higgs boson and the top quark hint that there must be physics beyond the SM that prevents the universe from decaying into a new vacuum state, argues John Ellis.
Could the historical role of flavour measurements in elucidating new-particle discoveries be about to repeat itself at the LHC?
LHCb's all-new VELO detector will extend the collaboration's capabilities to search for new physics at Run 3.
The heavy-ion physics programme at LHC Run 3 will provide deep insights into the rich field of QCD phenomenology.
