Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that question, as bizarre as it seems, could tell scientists something very ...

Scientists working on CERN’s Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment have published the latest data in their search for a long-lived exotic particle known as the dark photon. Dark photons (also called ...

CMS scientists are analyzing the first dataset gathered through a new tool designed to search for long-lived particles. Since the 1960s, scientists have discovered more than a dozen fundamental ...

In the first study of its kind at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the CMS collaboration has tested whether top quarks adhere to Einstein's special theory of relativity. The research is published in ...

The big picture: The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) hosts one of the most ambitious engineering and scientific endeavors ever undertaken by humans. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) ...

New research using a decommissioned section of the beam pipe from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has bought scientists closer than ever before to test whether magnetic monopoles exist.

Researchers have implemented a ground-breaking algorithm for reconstructing particles at the Large Hadron Collider. The project is part of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment -- one of seven ...

Behind every particle collision generated at the Large Hadron Collider is a multitude of technical feats. One of these is ...

Ten years after discovering the Higgs boson, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is preparing to start colliding protons at astonishing levels to unravel more mysteries of the universe. The world's ...

Earlier today, some 300 feet below the Earth's surface, in a circular tunnel so extensive that it travels from Switzerland into France and back again, scientists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at ...
