LHCb observes a new decay mode of the charmed beauty meson
The result has implications for future searches for rare beauty meson decays and for the interpretation of results from the Fermilab g-2 experiment
CERN70: The heart of CERN’s accelerator chain
Günther Plass, former Director of Accelerators at CERN, joined the Magnets group at the Proton Synchrotron (PS) in 1956. Three years later, the machine went into service and became the most powerful accelerator in the world
ABB and CERN identify 17.4% energy-saving opportunity in the Laboratory’s cooling and ventilation motors
Through a strategic research partnership focused on CERN’s cooling and ventilation systems, energy efficiency audits have helped to identify a savings potential of 17.4% across a total of 800 motors
A new data centre at CERN
The new data centre complements the existing centre and will allow CERN to respond to the growing data-processing needs of the worldwide scientific community
From particle physics to medicine
Spend a fascinating evening discovering how the technologies of particle physics are driving progress in medicine
AEgIS experiment paves the way for new set of antimatter studies by laser-cooling positronium
In cooling positronium with laser light for the first time, AEgIS may also have taken the first step towards a matter–antimatter system that emits laser-like gamma-ray light
CERN’s accelerators gear up for action after the winter maintenance break
A new physics run is about to begin! The first particle beams should reach the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) on 11 March
CMS collaboration explores how AI can be used to search for partner particles to the Higgs boson
This search uses computer vision techniques to look for collimated bursts of light, a potential signature of Higgs partner particles
Hearing the sound of quark–gluon plasma
The CMS collaboration has measured the speed of sound in the quark–gluon plasma more precisely than ever before, offering new insights into this extremely hot state of matter
CERN70: A first discovery
Giuseppe Fidecaro was among the small group of physicists who performed the first experiment at CERN to provide results in 1958 that would spread the Laboratory’s name around the world
