In collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, hotter than the Sun’s core by a staggering margin, scientists have finally solved a long-standing mystery: how delicate particles like deuterons and ...
At the world’s most powerful colliders, physicists are finally catching sight of particles that almost never leave a trace, a “ghost” signal that has haunted theory for decades. The detection of these ...
A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future physicists is crucial. About a billion pairs of particles collide every ...
A new robot developed by British and European researchers aims to solve that problem by travelling through the collider’s ...
