Members of BASE Collaboration receive awards for their research
Jonathan Morgner, a researcher at CERN’s BASE experiment, was awarded the Otto Hahn Medal on 17 June 2026. The Otto Hahn Medal is awarded by the Max Planck Society, in Germany, to early-career researchers across a variety of disciplines in recognition of outstanding scientific achievement with the aim of encouraging these researchers to continue pursuing

Accelerator Report: A well-deserved winter break for the accelerator complex
Soon, CERN personnel will take a well-deserved winter break, just like the accelerator complex. Following a successful year, the remainder of the accelerator complex was stopped on 2 December, marking the official start of the year-end technical stop

BASE experiment takes a big step towards portable antimatter
The experiment successfully transported a box filled with unbonded protons across CERN’s main site, thus demonstrating that the same feat could later be possible for antiprotons

Breakthrough in rapid cooling for BASE antiprotons
The experiment has developed a new device for cooling antiprotons more efficiently and for considerably increasing the precision of measurements of their fundamental properties

BASE breaks new ground in matter–antimatter comparisons
The collaboration has made the most precise comparison yet between protons and antiprotons and tested whether or not they behave in the same way under the influence of gravity

BASE opens up new possibilities in the search for cold dark matter
The Baryon Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment (BASE) at CERN’s Antimatter Factory has set new limits on how easily axion-like particles could turn into photons
