The Large Hadron Collider(LHC) in Geneva has collided heavy nuclei at the highest energies ever recorded. The energy of the lead ion collisions currently taking place at Cern are twice as high as that ...

Muons are a key subatomic particle in the discovery of new physics, but after particle collision, they’re difficult to track.

Physicists have determined the mass of the W boson with the highest precision yet by analysing more than a billion proton ...

For centuries, great thinkers of the Greco-Roman, Islamic, Medieval, and even early Enlightenment worlds investigated the possibilities of alchemy—the process of transforming base metals (i.e. lead) ...

Deep beneath the serene landscape straddling the border of France and Switzerland, a marvel of modern science and engineering lies in wait. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, a massive particle ...

New research using a decommissioned section of the beam pipe from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has bought scientists closer than ever before to test whether magnetic monopoles exist.
