Assembly of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector, being built for physics at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, reached an important turning point in October.
The first telescope of the high-energy stereoscopic system (HESS), named in honour of Victor Hess, the discoverer of cosmic radiation, was officially inaugurated in Namibia in September.
The LHCb collaboration, dedicated to studying CP violation in B-meson decays at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), has received the first components of its calorimeter system from Russia.
The ALICE experiment, which is being prepared for CERN's Large Hadron Collider, has developed the ALICE production environment.
The MiniBOONE experiment at Fermilab inthe US saw its first neutrinos in September.
Handling, presenting and understanding the complex track patterns produced in the collisions of high-energy particles calls for considerable ingenuity. Gordon Fraser talks to CERN collision display sp...
The first 500 crystals for the ALICE experiment's photon spectrometer (PHOS) arrived at CERN in May after a journey via Moscow from the town of Apatity in the Russian arctic region.
The PAMELA experiment, scheduled to be launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome next year, is set to provide a better understanding of the antimatter component of cosmic rays. Mark Pearce reports.
As the curtain is being raised on today's generation of gravitational wave (GW) detectors, the individual project teams met to consider future detectors and the goal of running the global ensemble of ...
