New results from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider show energetic quarks creating wake-like ripples in quark-gluon plasma, ...

In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...

This is what the creation of a Higgs Boson looks like to the Large Hadron Collider. (Credit: CERN) The Higgs boson is, if ...

Particles rush through a long tunnel in the Large Hadron Collider. Maximilien Brice/CERN, CC BY-SA When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics ...

The old fantasy of transforming lead into gold is now a reality, made possible by some wildly inefficient physics at the ...

In effect, it’s lab-grown gold, but at billions of dollars for a few atoms, it’s unlikely to shake the gold market.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its associated experiments undergo an annual, multi-week reset and calibration procedure following a winter hibernation period, essential for accurate data ...

The restart of the Large Hadron Collider has been pushed back further, following the discovery of vacuum leaks in two sectors of the experiment. The world's largest particle collider is now unlikely ...

This article was originally featured on The Conversation. When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics experiments like the Large Hadron Collider ...

While smashing lead atoms into each other at extremely high speeds in an effort to mimic the state of the universe just after ...
