CERN Accelerating science

This week the CMS collaboration is replacing the heart of its detector: its tracking system

The CMS detector’s tracking system, which determines the trajectories of charged particles, is being replaced this week at Point 5

The ATLAS PhD Grant gives students an opportunity to benefit from world-class research, supervision and training within the ATLAS collaboration

ATLAS measurements show proton has more strange quarks than previously thought

On the experiments’ side, the extended year-end technical stop is a precious opportunity to carry out repairs and maintenance works on their detectors

The LHCb collaboration has presented a new measurement of a rare particle decay, providing another strong confirmation of the Standard Model

The LHC experiment collaborations presented their latest results at the Quark Matter conference on how matter behaved in the universe's first moments

CERN’s LHCb experiment has found evidence of a symmetry violation that could contribute to solve the mystery of the missing antimatter

The ALPHA collaboration celebrate this week after twenty years of work resulted in them seeing, for the first time, antimatter's light spectrum

In a Nature paper, the ALPHA collaboration reports the first ever measurement on the optical spectrum of an antimatter

On 18 December 2016 the Sun aligned with the black hole in the centre of the Milky Way, allowing CAST to search for any exotic particles it might emit
