The TOTEM collaboration has made the first measurement of the double diffractive cross-section in the very forward region at the LHC, in a range in pseudorapidity where it has never been measured befo...
The collaboration that built and runs the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment, operating in the Sanford Underground Research Laboratory, has released its first results in the search for weakly in...
Researchers using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory have found evidence that the normally dim region close to the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way flared up with at least tw...
In August, after a 16-month shutdown, Fermilab resumed operation of its Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) beamline and sent the first muon neutrinos to three neutrino experiments: MINERvA, MINOS+ ...
François Englert, left, and Peter W Higgs have been awarded the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics "for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass ...
The CLOUD experiment at CERN, which is studying whether cosmic rays have a climatically significant effect on aerosols and clouds, is also tackling one of the most challenging and long-standing proble...
As the first long shutdown since the start-up of the LHC continues, many teams at CERN are already preparing for future improvements in performance that were foreseen when the machine restarts after t...
Modern physics experiments often require the detection of particles over large areas with excellent spatial resolution.
In mid-September, the Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) collaboration, based at Fermilab, welcomed the participation of 16 additional institutions from Brazil, Italy and the UK.
