Yet it remains incompatible with quantum mechanics, which governs phenomena at the particle scale. This conflict becomes ...
Dark matter is one of Nature’s most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to their supercomputer simulations. We know it’s real because its mass ...
Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use ...
Mary K Gaillard, a key figure in the development of the Standard Model of particle physics, passed away on 23 May 2025.
Simulating data in particle physics is expensive and not perfectly accurate. To get around this, researchers are now ...
The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top ...
A new study proposes that discovering a single exotic particle at the LHC could falsify string theory as we know it.
We speak to Cern principal scientist Archana Sharma about pattern recognition, machine learning and quantum technology.
Quantum mechanics looks at how things work at the atomic and subatomic levels, where particles behave in ways that seem ...
Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in ...
An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.
