This is an event view of the highest energy neutrino detected so far by the IceCube experiment based at the South Pole (CERN Courier December 2014 p30). Each sphere is one optical sensor; the coloured...
A new study of more than 200,000 galaxies, from the ultraviolet to the far infrared, has provided the most comprehensive assessment of the energy output of the nearby universe. It confirms that the ra...
In 1964, Murray Gell-Mann and George Zweig independently predicted a substructure for hadrons: baryons would be comprised of three quarks, mesons of a quark–antiquark pair. They also said that b...
The Islamic Republic of Pakistan became an associate member state of CERN on 31 July, following notification that Pakistan has ratified an agreement signed last December, granting this status to ...
On 16 June, an 11 T superconducting dipole-magnet model manufactured at CERN for the High-Luminosity LHC project reached record performance levels in tests in hall SM18. Its magnetic-field i...
The Advanced European Infrastructures for Detectors and Accelerators (AIDA-2020) – the largest European-funded project for joint detector development – is making financial support availabl...
This high-precision measurement was achieved by comparing the cyclotron frequencies of antiprotons and negatively charged hydrogen ions in a Penning trap.
The year 2015 began for the ATLAS experiment with an intense phase of commissioning using cosmic-ray data and first proton–proton collisions, allowing ATLAS physicists to test the trigger and detect...
The highlight of EPS-HEP 2015 for the CMS collaboration was the publication of the first physics result exploring the new territory at the LHC energy of 13 TeV: the measurement of the charged-hadron ...
