The number of the events the detector can handle per bunch crossing is limited. Even so, LHCb wants to integrate as much luminosity as possible

Didier Contardo and Jeff Spalding discuss the physics goals for CMS

CMS has published its first paper on proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions

The first measures the pseudorapidity density of charged particles in p–Pb collisions while the second is on transverse momentum distribution

The past two weeks have seen luminosity production rates vary somewhat but the overall upwards slope has remained steady

Hypothetical particles called "leptoquarks" combine traits of leptons and hadrons - just as the platypus combines those of reptilies and mammals

Applications are now open for eight conferences in topics from exoplanets to the Higgs boson

The LHC has been in luminosity production mode for a couple of weeks - the total integrated luminosity for the year has passed 14 inverse femtobarns

The collaborations published the latest in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the journal <em>Physics Letters B</em>

CERN's youngest experiment had its first physics workshop in the Globe of Science and Innovation this summer
