The gravitational waves emitted by accelerated masses were predicted by Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity as long ago as 1916, but so far remain undetected.
Pictures ultimately provide the most graphic record of of particle interactions. For CERN's LHC collider, sophisticated electronic "eyes" at the heart of the big ATLAS and CMS detectors will pick up ...
Conventional dogma says that the Big Bang was the beginning of everything. Here, Gabriele Veneziano of CERN challenges this view. He believes that the Big Bang is the biggest thing that the universe ...
New results remind us how, in the strange world of the neutral kaon, a fast rewind does not necessarily take you back to where you started.
The annual theory workshop at the German DESY laboratory in Hamburg traditionally focuses on a burning physics issue. The latest event, exploring "Directions beyond the Standard Model", tried to pee...
Neutrinos created in the first seconds after the Big Bang could hold vital clues about the evolution of the universe. A workshop in Trieste looked at a wealth of intriguing possibilities.
Software is playing an increasingly important role in the tricky business of setting up the beams from particle accelerators. A recent workshop at CERN looked at what has been accomplished so far and ...
In its continual tour of CERN Member States, the European Committee for Future Accelerators (ECFA) visited Poland recently. The venue was Cracow's 600-year-old Jagiellonian University, the oldest in...
