CERN might be opening more than just new frontiers in physics—they may be opening doors that should remain closed.

At CERN, beams of particles are accelerated faster and faster, just like a relay race (where each runner is faster than the ...

In a first-of-its-kind experiment conducted at the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), scientists have attempted to discover if the universe's heaviest ...

Physicists have struggled for seven decades with the question of why there is more matter in the universe than antimatter.

The ATLAS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider observed the rare production of a Z boson alongside two other vector bosons (VVZ) with a statistical significance of 6.4 standard deviations.

Do top quarks, nature's heaviest elementary particle, obey Einstein's rules at all times of day and night? Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider have the answer.

(CNN)-- Visiting a particle accelerator is like a religious experience, at least for Nima Arkani-Hamed. Immense detectors surround the areas where inconceivably small particles slam into one another ...

The upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider will allow scientists to better study known phenomena and to search for new ones.

The recent discovery of a stupendously powerful neutrino has left scientists scratching their heads. New research suggests it ...
