Our second story in the LHC Physics at Ten series visits the LHC’s most important discovery so far
The Large Hadron Collider began its physics programme on this day a decade ago
An improvised device, assembled using toy bricks, helped scientists conduct tests at CERN’s NA61/SHINE
CERN’s oldest working accelerator has a new injection kicker magnet and will soon receive a new septum as well
Visit the CERN accelerator complex through these immersive 360-degree photos
A new tracker made of scintillating fibres will be installed in the LHCb experiment during the ongoing shutdown of the Large Hadron Collider
The final touches are being put to the new test facility to ready it for operation
The CMS muon system is being upgraded to help track muons with ever-higher precision
The Super Proton Synchrotron will receive a new beam dump before the end of the second long shutdown of CERN’s accelerator complex
From today, all SI base units will be defined based on natural constants, with the kilogram the last to join the ranks
The installation and commissioning of the new facility is one of the biggest challenges of LS2 for the SPS team
