The result showcases the power of the LHC to push the precision frontier and improve our understanding of nature
The result is a milestone in the study of the properties and behaviour of antimatter
For the coming 5 weeks the LHC experiments will be taking data for their heavy-ion physics programmes
New result from the ATLAS experiment at CERN reaches the unprecedented precision of 0.09%
Joan Heemskerk, one of the pioneers of web-based art, has been selected as the winner of this year’s edition
The LHCb collaboration’s new measurements of matter–antimatter asymmetry in decays of beauty particles are the most precise yet of their kind
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 first observation of collider neutrinos at the LHC paves the way for exploring new physics scenarios
Arts at CERN and Copenhagen Contemporary join forces and announce the first open call for Collide Copenhagen
An improved ATLAS measurement of the W boson mass is in line with the Standard Model of particle physics
