Physics resumes at LHC
First stable beams in the LHC were declared on 23 May, just 25 days after the first beam was injected and almost three weeks ahead of schedule. Since then, interleaved with physics operation and remai...

CERN has recently implemented two important steps towards the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) – an upgrade that will increase the intensity of the LHC’s collisions significantly from the early 2020s....
The European X-ray Free-Electron Laser will probe electronic, chemical and biological processes in unprecedented detail.
The linac driving the European XFEL also serves as a prototype for a high-energy linear collider.
Supernova explosions, neutron-star mergers and rare radioactive ions might not seem to have much connection to terrestrial matters. Yet, while the lightest elements were synthesised immediately after ...
On 29 April, just after 8.00 p.m., the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) began circulating beams of protons for the first time this year. Extensive technical and maintenance work was undertaken since its en...
Researchers working on advanced and novel accelerator technologies met at CERN on 25–28 April to draw up an international roadmap for future high-energy particle accelerators. Organised by the Inte...
Following a longer than usual technical stop, which began in December last year to allow for the replacement of the CMS inner tracker, all eight sectors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have been co...
As the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) gears up for its 2017 restart, teams in the background at CERN and around the world are making rapid progress towards a major LHC upgrade due to be operational from ...
A 100 km-circumference collider would address many of the outstanding questions in modern particle physics.
