Xavier Niel, the French tech billionaire, and John Elkann, the chairperson of Ferrari, have also pledged money to the project ...

The masses of fundamental particles such as the Z and W bosons could have arisen from the twisted geometry of hidden ...

For a while, in the Middle Ages, there was a real craze for trying to turn unassuming lead into pure, gleaming gold. Perhaps those ancient alchemists should have been building a particle collider.

Deep beneath the serene landscape straddling the border of France and Switzerland, a marvel of modern science and engineering lies in wait. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, a massive particle ...

To unlock the secrets of dark matter, scientists could turn to supermassive black holes and their ability to act as natural superpowered particle colliders. That's according to new research that found ...

Physicists have detected neutrinos created by a particle collider. The discovery promises to deepen scientists' understanding of the subatomic particles, which were first spotted in 1956 and play a ...
