Accelerator Report: HiLumi LHC beam reliability runs pave the way to the future
Dedicated HiLumi LHC beam test runs are currently taking place in the LHC injectors – a crucial step to guarantee that the HiLumi LHC can operate at peak performance from the very start of physics running, in 2030
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
ALICE sees new sign of primordial plasma in proton collisions
The ALICE Collaboration takes a step further in addressing the question of whether a quark–gluon plasma can be formed in proton–proton and proton–nucleus collisions
Using machine-learning techniques, the ATLAS Collaboration has searched deep for signs of particles that could help answer some of the greatest mysteries of physics
Accelerator Report: The 2026 run will be short but intense
Every day counts, so the LHC operations teams have mapped out a precise sequence of running phases to maximise the physics output during the machine’s final months
The final physics season at the LHC has just kicked off! The experiments will record collisions until the end of June, when work will begin on transforming the machine into a high-luminosity accelerator.
Machine learning to reveal more about LHC particle collisions
The CMS Collaboration demonstrates that machine learning can outperform traditional methods in the full reconstruction of particle collisions at the LHC
Heating homes with the world’s largest particle accelerator
Now operational, a new heat exchange system is reusing hot water from part of the Large Hadron Collider’s cooling system to heat homes and businesses in the local area
