CMS presents its latest search for new exotic particles
This search for exotic long-lived particles looks at the possibility of “dark photon” production, which would occur when a Higgs boson decays into muons displaced in the detector

ATLAS sets record precision on Higgs boson’s mass
New result from the ATLAS experiment at CERN reaches the unprecedented precision of 0.09%

LHC experiments see first evidence of a rare Higgs boson decay
The ATLAS and CMS collaborations have joined forces to establish the first evidence of the rare decay of the Higgs boson into a Z boson and a photon

ATLAS measures Higgs boson’s decay width
The decay width is linked to the particle’s lifetime and if found to deviate from its predicted value could indicate the presence of new physics
