At CERN’s Large Hadron Collider on the edge of Geneva, scientists have reported a surprising twist in the behavior of matter.
This kind of ‘magic’ could lead to a computer revolution.
Something odd is happening deep inside the data streams from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. A set of “forbidden” patterns in how unstable particles decay, combined with rare Higgs events and a ...
A new theory suggests the universe’s greatest secrets are hiding in a “zeptouniverse” that’s ready to be explored—without waiting until 2070 for a new collider.
In a cavernous tunnel beneath the French–Swiss border, physicists have briefly recreated conditions that existed microseconds after the Big Bang and, in the process, knocked lead atoms into becoming ...
CERN's Large Hadron Collider now heats thousands of French homes with waste heat, turning particle physics research into practical energy savings.
A single subatomic particle that hit Earth in 2023 carried roughly 100,000 times more energy than anything humanity has ever ...
A new heat exchange system between the LHC and the French town of Ferney-Voltaire is directing waste heat energy from CERN's accelerator to warm thousands of homes and businesses.
Seventeen miles of underground tunnel, thousands of superconducting magnets, and protons whipped to a fraction below light ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can now chalk up one more use, alongside discovering the Higgs boson and other subatomic particles: heating French homes. With the new thermal recycling system ...
Alchemy is no longer a myth. See how scientists turned lead to gold by recreating Big Bang conditions on Earth and why this discovery is a scientific milestone.
