Read article 'At the heart of every LHC collision'
Understanding production cross-sections and their evolution as a function of √s are important components to understanding the measurements performed by ATLAS.
Read article 'ALICE finds a new source of charmonium'
The ALICE collaboration has studied the production of charmonium – bound states of charm and anti-charm quarks – in hadronic as well as in ultra-peripheral collisions of lead nuclei at √sNN = ...

The CALorimetric Electron Telescope has observed more than a hundred million events at energies above 10 GeV.
Read article 'Fast radio bursts reveal unexpected properties'
Two studies show that fast radio bursts (FRBs) have a richer phenomenology than initially thought and might originate in two different classes.
Read article 'The LHC is restarting'
The LHC, last among all of CERN’s accelerators, is resuming operation with beam while this issue goes to press. The year-end technical stop (YETS) started on 14 December 2015. During the 11...
Read article 'Searches with boosted topologies at Run 2'
ATLAS exploited the optimised boson tagging in the search for heavy resonances decaying into a pair of two electroweak gauge bosons (WW, WZ, ZZ) or of a gauge boson and a Higgs boson (WH, ZH).
Read article 'Anisotropic flow in Run 2'
Exploiting the data collected during November 2015 with Pb–Pb collisions at the record-breaking energy of √sNN = 5.02 TeV, ALICE measured for the first time the anisotropic flow of charged part...
Read article 'CMS hunts for supersymmetry in uncharted territory'
With the increase in the LHC centre-of-mass energy from 8 to 13 TeV, the production cross-section for hypothetical SUSY partners rises.
