An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

Physicists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have uncovered new hints that certain particle decays may not behave as the ...

Every time two beams of particles collide inside an accelerator, the universe lets us in on a little secret. Sometimes it's a particle no one has ever seen. Other times, it's a fleeting glimpse of ...

On April 30, 2026, scientists worldwide reported major advances in particle acceleration, from space-based cosmic ray ...

When you think of a particle accelerator, you usually think of some giant cyclotron with heavy-duty equipment in a massive mad-science lab. But scientists now believe they can create particle ...

For decades, scientists have been trying to solve a mystery: Where do high-energy cosmic rays come from? These charged particles travel from outer space to Earth, but their origins remain unknown. Now ...

If one particle accelerator alone is not enough to achieve the desired result, why not combine two accelerators? An international team led by physicists at the Center for Advanced Laser Applications ...

Laser-plasma interaction encompasses the intense coupling between high-power laser pulses and ionised matter, leading to the generation of extreme electric and magnetic fields. When a femtosecond or ...
