Say what you will about high-energy physicists, they don't have any problems with self-"teem: they see their field as the queen of sciences and regard as their due a huge $11 billion particle-smashing ...

The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.

Amid the chaotic chains of events that ensue when protons smash together at the Large Hadron Collider in Europe, one particle has popped up that appears to go to pieces in a peculiar way. All eyes are ...

The standard model of particle physics has been a spectacularly successful theory for explaining the properties and interactions of fundamental particles, with many measurements confirming its ...

Molecular pentaquark Artist’s impression of how five quarks could bind together to form an exotic hadron. Such particles have been spotted at CERN, Fermilab and SLAC. (Image: Daniel Dominguez/CERN) ...

Physicists see top quarks and Higgs bosons emanating from the same collisions in new results from the Large Hadron Collider. Today two experiments at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN announced a ...

Observational first: physicists have used the ATLAS experiment at CERN to observe the production of top-quark and photon pairs. (Courtesy: CERN) For the first time, particle physicists have observed ...

The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top quarks that suggests that these heaviest of all elementary particles form a ...

Researchers at the CERN Large Hadron Collider have discovered a doubly charming new particle, which has long been theorized to exist. Named Ξ cc ++ (Xi cc ++) (and no, we don't know how to pronounce ...

The LHCb collaboration is far less famous than CMS or ATLAS, but the particles and antiparticles they produce, containing charm and bottom quarks, holds new physics hints that the other detectors ...

University of Chicago scientists have solved a 20-year-old puzzle in particle physics using data from an experiment conducted for an entirely different purpose. Physicists had long known that ...
