At CERN, we probe the fundamental structure of particles that make up everything around us. We do so using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments.

In the final part of the “LHC Physics at Ten” series, we look at the searches that go beyond our current understanding of the universe
CMS data recorded in 2010 and 2011 from lead–lead collisions at the Large Hadron Collider have been released into the public domain for the first time
Half of a CERN high-gradient test facility embarks on a new life at the University of Melbourne
Linac 4 has taken over from the retired Linac 2 as the first accelerator in the LHC injection chain
All research-quality data from proton–proton collisions recorded by CMS during the first two years of LHC operation are now publicly available
The particle, which has been called X(2900), was detected by analysing all the data LHCb has recorded so far from collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider
The result paves the way for searching for signs of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics
Our third story in the LHC Physics at Ten series takes us on a deeper dive into the Higgs boson
Our second story in the LHC Physics at Ten series visits the LHC’s most important discovery so far
The Large Hadron Collider began its physics programme on this day a decade ago
An improvised device, assembled using toy bricks, helped scientists conduct tests at CERN’s NA61/SHINE
CERN’s oldest working accelerator has a new injection kicker magnet and will soon receive a new septum as well
