Shaking the box for new physics
The CMS collaboration has searched for new physics in a rare decay of a known particle, using an approach that can be likened to shaking a box containing a birthday present to find a clue about what’s inside
Upgrading the LHCb sub-detectors for the HL-LHC
The LHCb experiment is revamping its electromagnetic calorimeter with new high-performance modules and equipping its ring-imaging Cherenkov detectors with very fast electronics
CERN70: The world’s first hadron collider
Kjell Johnsen was Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR) project leader when the accelerator was built
CERN70: An electronic revolution
Georges Charpak received the 1992 Nobel Prize in Physics for his 1968 invention of the multi-wire proportional chamber, which revolutionised particle detection
Hunting for millicharged particles at the LHC
The FASER and FORMOSA collaborations team up to test a demonstrator experiment to detect particles with a tiny electrical charge
CERN70: The nucleus as a laboratory
Helge Ravn was part of the ISOLDE group from the beginning. When ISOLDE began operations at CERN in 1967, it was unique in the world
Probing matter–antimatter asymmetry with AI
Using a cutting-edge AI algorithm, the CMS collaboration has obtained the first evidence of CP violation in the decay of the strange beauty meson into a pair of muons and a pair of electrically charged kaons
MoEDAL zeroes in on magnetic monopoles
The latest searches conducted by the MoEDAL experiment at the Large Hadron Collider considerably shrink the theoretical arenas in which the hunt for magnetic monopoles can continue
CERN's edge AI data analysis techniques used to detect marine plastic pollution
CERN’s expertise in data management is leveraged to combat marine plastic litter through the new EU project, Edge SpAIce
CERN70: Cutting-edge computing
Paolo Zanella came to the CERN computing group in 1962, just a few years after the first computer had arrived
