Muons are a key subatomic particle in the discovery of new physics, but after particle collision, they’re difficult to track.

A new robot developed by British and European researchers aims to solve that problem by travelling through the collider’s internal pipes and identifying faults before they halt scientific work, ...

Physicists know that their elegant theoretical description of forces and particles – the Standard Model – must be incomplete, ...

Technology is being pushed to its very limits. The upgrades to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN slated for the next few years will increase data transfer rates beyond what the current neutrino ...
