Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

A new particle detector has passed a crucial test that shows it is ready to detect the "ashes" left over from a unique primordial soup that filled the universe immediately after the Big Bang. The ...

All experiments broke records in the final full operating year of the third run of the LHC. All four LHC experiments performed extremely well throughout the 2025 proton run, detecting more collisions ...

A new specialized, radiation-hardened chip has been designed for CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) upgrade. Engineers at Columbia University have developed this analog-to-digital converter (ADC) chip ...

At the heart of every atomic nucleus, the strong interaction quietly dictates the structure of matter, yet for decades one of its simplest products refused to fit the script. The way fragile “light ...
