CERN Accelerating science

Georges Charpak received the 1992 Nobel Prize in Physics for his 1968 invention of the multi-wire proportional chamber, which revolutionised particle detection

The latest searches conducted by the MoEDAL experiment at the Large Hadron Collider considerably shrink the theoretical arenas in which the hunt for magnetic monopoles can continue

Helge Ravn was part of the ISOLDE group from the beginning. When ISOLDE began operations at CERN in 1967, it was unique in the world

CERN’s expertise in data management is leveraged to combat marine plastic litter through the new EU project, Edge SpAIce

LHCb has conducted a new search for matter–antimatter asymmetry using its full data sets from the first and second runs of the LHC

The measurement is the most precise yet made by a single experiment

The result has implications for future searches for rare beauty meson decays and for the interpretation of results from the Fermilab g-2 experiment

Paolo Zanella came to the CERN computing group in 1962, just a few years after the first computer had arrived

The collaboration has also made publicly available the software that it developed to search for the unique particle

Peter Higgs passed away on 8 April at the age of 94

The recently launched Next-Generation Triggers project is set to remarkably increase the efficiency, sensitivity and modelling of CERN experiments
