The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and the American Physical Society (APS) signed an agreement today for SCOAP3 – the Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access Publishing in Particle Physics.
In a paper published today in Nature Physics, the ALICE collaboration reports that proton collisions sometimes present similar patterns to those observed in the collisions of heavy nuclei.
The Etat de Genève and CERN are today announcing the imminent start of work just outside the CERN site to create the brand-new Esplanade des Particules, a space worthy of Europe’s leading laboratory for particle physics.
A beam circulated for the first time yesterday in the pioneering SESAME synchrotron. This is an important milestone on the way to research getting underway at the first light-source laboratory in the Middle East.
The ALPHA collaboration reports the first ever measurement on the optical spectrum of an antimatter atom. This achievement features technological developments that open up a completely new era in high-precision antimatter research.
Today, the representatives of CERN and of the Government of India signed an Agreement admitting India to CERN as an Associate Member. The Government of India still needs to notify CERN of its final approval for the Agreement to enter into force.
The ASACUSA experiment reported new precision measurement of the mass of the antiproton relative to that of the electron based on spectroscopic measurements with antiprotonic helium.
After 3 years of successful operation and growth, CERN announced today the continuation of the global SCOAP3 Open Access initiative for at least three more years.
Particle physicists are showcasing a wealth of brand new results from the Large Hadron Collider experiments at CERN at the “ICHEP 2016” conference in Chicago.
