CERN Accelerating science

ESA’s recently launched Euclid telescope will rely on CERN software and computing infrastructure to help it map the effects of dark matter and dark energy on the Universe

With its world-renowned expertise in the analysis of massive volumes of data, CERN has started a unique collaboration with leading market-surveillance experts to explore how particle physics could help to build future manipulation-detection techniques

Joan Heemskerk, one of the pioneers of web-based art, has been selected as the winner of this year’s edition

By collaborating with projects for future gravitational-wave observatories, CERN helps to find echoes from the past

The teams at CERN’s Neutrino Platform are currently upgrading and assembling multiple detectors to help large experiments in the USA and Japan to uncover these mysterious particles

The LHCb collaboration’s new measurements of matter–antimatter asymmetry in decays of beauty particles are the most precise yet of their kind

Join CERN, Fermilab and SURF on 15 June at 6 p.m. CEST for its first gameshow-style livestream to learn about all things neutrinos

The ATLAS and CMS collaborations have joined forces to establish the first evidence of the rare decay of the Higgs boson into a Z boson and a photon

The observation at CERN’s nuclear physics facility of a long-sought decay of the thorium-229 nucleus in a solid-state system is a key step towards a clock that could outclass today’s most precise atomic clocks

The observed mass of the Higgs boson is, from the theoretical point of view, unnaturally small. This conundrum is forcing physicists to explore exotic explanations.
