The Extra Low Energy Antiproton ring (ELENA) will further slow antiprotons from the Antiproton Decelerator, to make them easier to trap

CERN physicists are frantically analysing data in the run-up to ICHEP 2012, this year's major particle-physics conference in Melbourne, Australia

Excellent accelerator performance and a higher running energy has ensured the LHC has delivered collisions quickly this year

The LHC is so large that operators have to correct for a surprising source of error - the moon's gravitational pull

The LHCb collaboration has observed two new excited states of the Λb beauty particle, confirming Standard-Model predictions

Experts from the AMS collaboration operate the detector round the clock from the Payload Operation Control Center at CERN

The Standard Model predicts the existence of these new states but this is the first time they have been confirmed in experiments

Lasers consume too much power and can't sustain accelerating particles long enough to produce collisions. ICAN hopes to change all that

A new data centre in Hungary and the 4th phase of Openlab promise improvements to CERN's computing infrastructure

The Proton Synchrotron (PS) Booster – a key accelerator in the CERN complex – is 40 years old this month
