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

Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider have announced the discovery of three new 'exotic particles' that could help to explain how our universe was formed. The new structures exist for just a hundred ...

China's ambitious new particle accelerator was meant to pick up where the Large Hadron Collider left off, but the project was ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is the most powerful particle accelerator in the world. During its ten years of operations it has led to remarkable discoveries, including the long sought-after ...

The Large Hadron Collider will undergo an overhaul that will nearly double its power and allow scientists to uncover more secrets about the way our universe works. It opens up the possibility of ...

The Large Hadron Collider is entering a rare quiet spell, with its proton collisions halted so engineers can prepare the ...

Researchers are developing plans for a new collider that could smash particles together at a greater force than currently possible in a bid to shed light on some of the Universe’s biggest mysteries.

Scientists have found new ways in which quarks, the tiniest particles known to humankind, group together. The new structures exist for just a hundred thousandth of a billionth of a billionth of a ...

Five new subatomic particles that had been “hiding in plain sight” have been uncovered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), Europe’s giant atom-smasher. They were discovered by scientists in charge of ...

Scientists have stumbled on five new subatomic particles, helping to illuminate some of the most fundamental parts of the universe. The particles had been “hiding in plain sight”, according to one of ...

An illustration of one possible layout of quarks in a pentaquark particle such as those seen at LHCb (showing five tightly-bonded quarks) Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider have announced the ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been restarted after a two-year shutdown. Physicists hope it could lead to discoveries that could potentially represent the biggest revolution in physics since ...
