"The origins and acceleration mechanisms of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays have been among the biggest mysteries in the field ...

The scientific wonderers at What If explore the catastrophic physics of a black hole accidentally forming inside a particle accelerator like CERN.

Physicists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have uncovered new hints that certain particle decays may not behave as the ...

A pillar of physics — that nothing can go faster than the speed of light — appears to be smashed by an oddball subatomic particle that has apparently made a giant end run around Albert Einstein's ...

The US has begun lowering 10 million pounds of CERN-supplied steel a mile underground to build the massive DUNE detectors.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment will study nature’s most mysterious particle a mile beneath South Dakota’s Black ...

Physicists have determined the mass of the W boson with the highest precision yet by analysing more than a billion proton ...

Muons are a key subatomic particle in the discovery of new physics, but after particle collision, they’re difficult to track.

The accelerator complex at CERN is a succession of machines that accelerate particles to increasingly higher energies. Each machine boosts the energy of a beam of particles before ...
