On 19 July 1973, the Gargamelle bubble chamber at CERN revealed the existence of weak neutral currents and put the nascent Standard Model of particle physics on solid ground

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.

Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger share the award for conducting experiments that laid the foundations for advanced quantum technologies

The direct discovery of the W and Z bosons at the SppS in 1983 provided solid experimental support for the existence of the Higgs boson

The Higgs boson holds the record (48 years) among elementary particles for the time between prediction and discovery, going from an esoteric technicality to commanding the global spotlight at the world’s most powerful collider

The first edition of the EuCAPT annual symposium on 5-7 May saw hundreds of physicists discuss the latest opportunities and challenges in theoretical astroparticle physics and cosmology
