AMS reaches 17 billion cosmic-ray events
Experts from the AMS collaboration operate the detector round the clock from the Payload Operation Control Center at CERN
LHCb discovers two excited states for the Λb beauty particle
The Standard Model predicts the existence of these new states but this is the first time they have been confirmed in experiments
Laser acceleration, now with added fibre
Lasers consume too much power and can't sustain accelerating particles long enough to produce collisions. ICAN hopes to change all that
CERN computing looks to the future
A new data centre in Hungary and the 4th phase of Openlab promise improvements to CERN's computing infrastructure
Forty years of the PS Booster
The Proton Synchrotron (PS) Booster – a key accelerator in the CERN complex – is 40 years old this month
CMS discovers new particle – Meet the Ξb beauty baryon
The detector measured a strong signal that gives the particle's mass as 5945.0 ± 2.8 MeV
Taking the measure of the kilogram
Forget the new diet - you may weigh less in the morning anyway, thanks to an overhaul of the kilogram
ISOLDE to produce isotopes for medical research
The CERN-MEDICIS project will use waste beams from ISOLDE to produce isotopes that could help in the war on cancer
LHC Report: First collisions soon
On 16 March beams in the LHC reached the world-record energy of 4 TeV. Stable-beams mode is planned for 3 weeks from now
