CAST-CAPP inches closer to axion dark matter
The CAPP axion haloscope at the CAST experiment has hunted for axions from the Milky Way’s “halo” of dark matter, and has narrowed down the theoretical space in which to look for these hypothetical particles

ATLAS measures Higgs boson’s decay width
The decay width is linked to the particle’s lifetime and if found to deviate from its predicted value could indicate the presence of new physics

First Run 3 physics result by CMS
CMS measured the top-quark pair production cross section
-
ALICE explores the hidden charm of quark–gluon plasma
The ALICE collaboration shows that different bound states of a charm quark and its antimatter counterpart are differently modified by quark–gluon plasma, opening new avenues for studying this special state of matter and its effects
-
ALICE pins down hypermatter properties
The collaboration’s latest study of a “strange”, unstable nucleus known as the hypertriton offers new insight into the particle interactions that may take place at the hearts of neutron stars
-
LHCb discovers three new exotic particles
The collaboration has observed a new kind of “pentaquark” and the first-ever pair of “tetraquarks”
-
ATLAS and CMS release results of most comprehensive studies yet of Higgs boson’s properties
The collaborations have used the largest samples of proton–proton collision data recorded so far by the experiments to study the unique particle in unprecedented detail
