Eighty years ago today, Physical Review published a paper by Carl Anderson announcing the discovery of the positron – the electron’s antiparticle

With two and a half times more data analysed than in July last year, ATLAS and CMS find that the new particle looks more and more like a Higgs boson

A standing stone outside the CERN Control Centre neatly sums up our understanding of the universe

Objects as large as a planet or as small as a photon can have the property of spin. Spin is also the reason we can watch movies in 3D.

Physicists speaking today at the Moriond conference say that the new particle discovered at CERN last year is looking more and more like a Higgs boson

On 24 February 1983 the journal Physics Letters B published a paper by the UA1 collaboration describing the discovery of the W boson

An international team of collaborators are manipulating 'fat' antiatoms at the AEgIS experiment at CERN's Antiproton Decelerator

Forty years ago quarks gained their freedom – at least theoretically – and the modern theory of the strong interaction began to emerge

The recently installed AEgIS experiment will examine the effect of gravity on antimatter

On 25 January 1983, CERN physicists announced to the world the discovery of the W boson, an elementary particle that carries the weak force
