The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of California, Los ...

New experimental results show particles called muons can be corralled into beams suitable for high-energy collisions, paving the way for new physics. New experimental results show particles called ...

Europe's top physics lab CERN launches its newest particle accelerator, billed as a key step towards future experiments that could unlock the universe's greatest mysteries.

Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up of my favourite research of 2025 I have chosen five stories in which ...

CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron will turn 50 in 2026—and it has a resonant “ghost.” Using mathematics, physicists measured and modeled how these resonant lines intersect. Modeling a 3D shape over time ...

Whenever SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's linear accelerator is on, packs of around a billion electrons each travel together at nearly the speed of light through metal piping. These electron ...

Texas A&M University professor Peter McIntyre and his colleagues want to build a particle accelerator around the rim of the Gulf of Mexico in order to discover the most fundamental building blocks of ...

Scientists in the particle physics community are bringing environmental and climate issues to the table in discussions about future research. Using a particle collider requires a lot of energy. For ...
