CMS looks deep inside quarks
The CMS Collaboration has probed deep inside quarks to search for potential building blocks within them

CMS strengthens the case for toponium
A new independent measurement by the CMS experiment at the LHC is consistent with the existence of the most massive composite particle ever observed, the momentary union of a top quark and its antiquark

CMS welcomes new management for 2026–2028
With more than 6000 scientists, engineers, technicians, administrators and students, CMS is one of the world’s largest scientific collaborations. From 1 January 2026 to 31 August 2028, Anadi Canepa has the important role of representing the Collaboration as its Spokesperson. Joining her as deputies are Hafeez Hoorani, who continues in his present role until 31

CMS congratulates its 2024 Thesis Award and 2025 Young Researcher Prize winners
2024 CMS PhD Thesis Award During the September 2025 CMS week, the CMS collaboration announced the winners of the 2024 CMS PhD Thesis Award. After a rigorous evaluation of a remarkable pool of 19 nominees, the collaboration honoured Congqiao Li (Peking University, CN), Christina Wenlu Wang (California Institute of Technology (Caltech), US) and Ho Fung

Shape-shifting collisions probe secrets of early Universe
The first high-energy collisions between light nuclei at the Large Hadron Collider confirm the unusual “bowling-pin” shape of neon nuclei and offer up a new tool to study the extreme state of matter produced in the aftermath of the Big Bang

Elusive romance of top-quark pairs observed at the LHC
The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top quarks that suggests that these heaviest of all elementary particles form a fleeting union
