In a recent experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN produced particles believed to have only existed in the moments following the Big Bang. This remarkable achievement offers valuable ...

A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future physicists is crucial.

The ALICE Collaboration is a winner of the 2025 Gizmodo Science Fair for transforming lead into gold for a fraction of a ...

Particles similar to axions, the leading candidate for dark matter that has long eluded detection, may have already been ...

The Large Hadron Collider has led to groundbreaking discoveries, but scientists are now focused on an even larger project—a 91-kilometer ring buried beneath the Swiss-French countryside. This $17 ...

This summer, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) took a breath of fresh air. Normally filled with beams of protons, the 27-km ring was reconfigured to enable its first oxygen–oxygen and neon–neon ...

On 1954, European nations came together to create Cern, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, marking a new era for ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) presents a tough case for electronics. Situated inside a 17-mile long tunnel that runs in a ...

After a decade of construction, the new-and-improved super Pioneering High Energy Nuclear Interaction eXperiment (sPHENIX) is officially ready for science as it passes a key “standard candle” ...

Scientists are exploring the bold concept of building a super-collider around the Moon, an idea that could revolutionise our understanding of particle physics and the cosmos. Similar to the Large ...

Yampolskiy continues this tradition of exploring the boundaries of a possible simulation and specifically exploring ways to escape it. Yampolskiy pulls examples from real-world examples of hacks, ...

The University of Nottingham's website on all things physics and astronomy, Sixty Symbols, sometimes takes reader questions and then makes a short YouTube film to give the answer. Recently, they ...
