The LHC operations team and many other experts have been working hard to set up and validate the accelerator for safe beam operation, leading to the first stable beams for physics of 2025 on 5 May
It should be common knowledge among software developers that writing software with as few weaknesses, vulnerabilities and flaws as possible is the most cost-efficient solution
The CERN-led educational programme Beamline for Schools is among the recipients of the 2025 awards of the European Physical Society’s High Energy and Particle Physics Division
User-friendly and interactive with smart recognition features, the new CERNature web application allows you to discover CERN’s rich floral biodiversity while contributing to growing its database
Near-miss collisions between high-energy lead nuclei at the LHC generate intense electromagnetic fields that can knock out protons and transform lead into fleeting quantities of gold nuclei
CERN is committed to improving its energy performance. Having been one of the first scientific laboratories to obtain ISO 50001 certification for energy management, the Organization has now successfully passed its 2025 surveillance audit
The LHC has restarted and both beams have been circulating in the machine since 8 April, meaning that the start of the LHC beam commissioning during Easter is apparently not a constant of nature
Surprising results from the NA61/SHINE collaboration at CERN show that this so-called isospin asymmetry could point to gaps in physicists’ understanding of how quarks and gluons combine
