The Most Difficult Beam Ever Built Might Transform Physics
A particle born in one identity can arrive wearing another. Few discoveries in modern physics have unsettled the Standard Model more profoundly than neutrino…
Seeing the Unseen: Researchers Create a Novel Method for 3D Particle Tracking
By integrating current technology in novel ways, physicists are rethinking how to detect elusive particles like neutrinos.
The Precision to Detect, the Vision to Energize: Neutrinos as a New Power Standard
They travel at near light-speed. They pass through planets, buildings, and bodies with impunity.
Chasing Shadows: Unraveling the Mysteries of Invisible Particles
The realm of particle physics, with its intricate mosaic of particles, is far from what we perceive with our naked eyes.
Neutrinos: Whisperers of the Cosmos
In the cosmic theater, where the grand narratives of celestial phenomena unfold, there exists an ensemble of particles that dance on the fringes of human…
Physicist from UWinnipeg to Propel Neutrino Study at CERN
At CERN, the group headed by Dr. Jamieson is set to conduct pivotal research of tremendous significance.
The pivotal discovery in particle physics that set the stage for the Higgs boson
The 50th anniversary of one of CERN's most significant achievements, the detection of weak neutral currents, is celebrated in July 2023.
Charting the Course for the Future of Neutrino Exploration
Nestled within the confines of CERN's Neutrino Platform on the Prévessin campus in France are two colossal structures encased in a vibrant red grating.
Unveiling the Secrets of Neutrino Beams: SHINE Illuminates the Way
In the colossal aftermath of the Big Bang, a staggering 13.8 billion years ago, a symphony of particles burst into existence, encompassing matter and its…
Size-up of the proton through neutrino scattering
The essential characteristics of the proton, such as its mass and spin, are still poorly understood by physicists more than a century after the particle's…
Scientists have discovered neutrinos produced by a particle collider for the first time
Scientists have successfully produced neutrinos in a particle collider for the first time.
The particle that could cause a revolution in physics
To understand why the neutrino can provoke a revolution, we need some history. In the early 1960s the situation in theoretical physics was, to put it mildly…
Scientists speculate that dark photons may make up dark matter
Dark matter could be composed of ultralight dark photons that have heated our universe. This is a new scenario proposed in a study published recently in the…
An apparent anomaly in the Standard Model of Physics is disregarded by new CERN data
CERN reported that new data from the Large Hadron Collider experiment showed that earlier data suggesting a violation of the Standard Model of particle…
From the enigma of gravitational waves and neutrinos to the rapid detection of cancer
The SCIE and BBVA recognized computer scientist Pablo Morales Alvarez for his methods to determine gravitational wave effects.
Scientists have discovered new indications that dark photons may make up dark matter
In a novel hypothesis put out in a study just published in Physical Review Letters, dark matter may be composed of ultralight dark photons that heated up our cosmos.
Arrival of the first DUNE science components at SURF
The first parts of the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment have arrived at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota…
Delving into quantum technologies
Quantum technologies for high-energy physics (QT4HEP) were discussed at CERN's first international conference last month.
Large Hadron Collider may be shut down by CERN to conserve energy
The Large Hadron Collider, which is now being used to undertake experiments to examine neutrinos, dark matter, and the Higgs boson, is capable of being shut…
SBND scientists have finished assembling the large neutrino detection system
At the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy, a new neutrino detection system that is roughly the size of a small, two-story…
A new approach for recreating particles at the Large Hadron Collider has been developed
In order to rebuild particles using data from the Large Hadron Collider, a group of researchers from CERN, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and…
Rare W boson trios discovered by physicists at the Large Hadron Collider
In most cases, the letters "www" are followed by a "dot," however in this experiment, that is not the case.
Scientists are reactivating the Large Hadron Collider to learn more about the universe
Using the Large Hadron Collider for a third time, the bright brains at CERN have high expectations of uncovering even more cosmic riddles.
