For the first time, physicists at CERN have coaxed an antiproton — a mirror twin of the matter that makes up our world — into ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is tough on electronics. Situated inside a 17-mile-long tunnel that runs in a circle under the border between ...

It won’t make its way into quantum computers, but it could help us understand why the universe is filled with matter.

The research, supported by the Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, shows that even an experiment with a clear mission in particle physics can often find something unplanned. This was also ...

The Future Circular Collider is CERN's next leap in unlocking the secrets of the universe. Designed to be bigger and far more ...

Scientists have shown that light can interact with itself in bizarre ways—creating ghost-like virtual particles that pop in and out of existence.

Usually, light waves can pass through each other without any resistance. According to the laws of electrodynamics, two light ...

The alchemist's dream is to make gold from common metals, but can this be done? The physics needed to explain how to change ...

The first antimatter qubit will help search for differences between matter and antimatter ...

Columbia University engineers invent an extreme chip capable of surviving the harsh radiation emitted during high-energy LHC ...

Deep beneath the border of Switzerland and France lies the world’s largest and most powerful scientific instrument—the Large ...
