New director-general Mark Thomson discusses fundraising efforts and future priorities for Europe’s particle-physics ...

CERN scientists announced on Wednesday that they observed a particle that strongly resembles the long-sought after Higgs boson, the final missing ingredient in the standard model of particle Physics.

The existence of the Higgs boson completes the standard model of particle physics. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. On April 8, ...

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to probe the fringes of known physics, and now the facility has found particles not behaving as predicted. While it’s still early days, the discovery ...

GENEVA - Physicists say they have all but proven that the "God particle" exists. They have a footprint and a shadow, and the only thing left is to see for themselves the elusive subatomic particle ...

Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

Physicists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) use AI to search for subatomic particle evidence. CERN ...

(Elodie LE MAOU/AFP/AFP) The chief of the CERN physics laboratory says China's decision to pause its major particle accelerator project presents an "opportunity" to ensure Europe's rival plan goes ...

But not anymore. After collecting data, scientists at the European Center for Nuclear Research, or CERN, have announced the discovery with 99.999 percent certainty that the Higgs Boson does exist.

Europe's physics lab CERN on Thursday said private donors had pledged $1 billion towards the construction of a new particle accelerator that would be by far the world's biggest. In a first, private ...

The next head of Europe's CERN physics laboratory said Thursday that he favoured moving forward with plans for a giant particle collider far more powerful than the collider that discovered the famous ...
