If you think keeping track of the photos on your mobile phone is a challenge, imagine how daunting the job would be if your camera were taking thousands of photos every second. That's the task faced ...

Inside high-energy proton collisions, quarks and gluons briefly form a dense, boiling state before cooling into ordinary ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

A team of scientists has devised a machine learning algorithm that calculates, with low computational time, how the ATLAS detector in the Large Hadron Collider would respond to the ten times more data ...

Inside the most powerful particle colliders on Earth, protons slam together at nearly the speed of light, shredding matter ...

ALICE collaboration identifies three-phase process that allows particles to form despite energetically unfavourable ...

FRANKFURT. For the moment, the accelerators at CERN are at rest during the "second long shutdown". During this time, the accelerators undergo upgrades and refurbishments so that more particles can be ...

During a 10,000 fps slow-motion collision experiment, the team unexpectedly captures a rare scientific phenomenon. What began ...

Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...

A couple of weeks ago the small satellite company Capella was alerted that another craft was on a high-speed collision course with their pathfinder, Denali. Manoeuvre commands were urgently sent to ...

Firing particles at each other at 99.99% of the speed of light, the LHC is back in the race to discover new physics. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
