his years's Particle Accelerator Conference in New York City on 29 March - 2 April included news from several major new machines that are beginning to flex their muscles.
Careful analysis of data collected by the NA50 experiment studying high-energy heavy-ion collisions at CERN shows clear signs of new behaviour, suggesting that under these conditions the colliding nu...
Gamma-ray bursts The most powerful objects in the universe are also the most mysterious. Gamma-ray bursts can emit more energy in a few seconds than all of the 1011 stars in our galaxy emit over a few...
Article reporting the exhibition of hardware used to detect the W and Z particles in the microcosm exhibition.
The "Roman pot" technique has become a time-honoured particle physics approach each time a new energy frontier is opened up, and CERN's LHC proton collider, which can attain collision energies of 14 T...
Two of the initial firms supplying superconducting dipole magnets for CERN's LHC proton collider Noell of Würzburg, Germany, and Ansaldo of Genoa, Italy have joined forces.
Special superconducting quadrupole magnets for squeezing the beams at CERN's LHC collider have been successfully developed at the Japanese KEK laboratory as part of the LHC co-operation programme betw...
A new development in detector technology is good news for astronomers.
ESO update The first 8.2 m telescope of the Very Large Telescope array opens to astronomers on 1 April. It has already made interesting discoveries during its commisioning stage. Observations of one o...
Michael Witherell, from the the University of California, Santa Barbara, will succeed John Peoples as director of Fermilab on 1 July. The search for a new Fermilab director began last year, when John ...
