The observed mass of the Higgs boson is, from the theoretical point of view, unnaturally small. This conundrum is forcing physicists to explore exotic explanations.
A glimpse into the past while preparing for the future: CERN is celebrated by millions
This year, CERN celebrated the restart of the LHC, the beginning of the LHC Run 3 and the 10th anniversary of the Higgs boson discovery. These milestones contributed to a surge of interest in CERN and particle physics among the public.
ATLAS and CMS release results of most comprehensive studies yet of Higgs boson’s properties
The collaborations have used the largest samples of proton–proton collision data recorded so far by the experiments to study the unique particle in unprecedented detail
LHC Run 3: physics at record energy starts tomorrow
The Large Hadron Collider is ready to once again start delivering proton collisions to experiments, this time at an unprecedented energy of 13.6 TeV, marking the start of the accelerator’s third run of data taking for physics
The discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider and the progress made since then, have allowed physicists to make tremendous steps forward in our understanding of the universe
