The observation provides direct experimental access to the mass of an elementary particle known as the charm quark

As the various breakthroughs of the 1970s gradually consolidated the Standard Model, the Brout–Englert–Higgs field and its boson emerged as the most promising theoretical model to explain the origin of mass

The collaboration has put the seesaw model of neutrino mass to a new test

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

Beams of protons are again circulating around the collider’s 27-kilometre ring, marking the end of a multiple-year hiatus for upgrade work

Precise knowledge of the top-quark mass is of paramount importance to understand our world at the smallest scale

On 3 March 2022, CERN Director-General Fabiola Gianotti and Brazilian Minister for Science, Technology and Innovation Marcos Pontes signed an agreement admitting Brazil as an Associate Member State of CERN

The finding may help determine whether or not any antimatter seen by experiments in space originates from dark matter

The collaboration has tackled challenging supersymmetry scenarios, surpassing long-standing limits set by the LEP collider
