The world’s largest atom smasher has conducted its first-ever collisions between protons and oxygen ions, as part of an ...

As particle accelerator technology moves into the high-luminosity era, the need for extreme precision and unprecedented collision energy keeps growing. Given also the Laboratory's desire to reduce ...

The world's largest particle accelerator has performed its first collisions, and its first beam acceleration. Progress on the giant experiment has been rapid in the four days since the Large ...

Using a $6 billion particle accelerator straddling the Swiss-French border, CERN physicists will attempt Tuesday to collide protons at an energy level unmatched at any other physics lab.

Currently, the distinction of the most powerful particle accelerator in the world belongs to CERN's Large Hadron Collider, or LHC. The LHC accelerates protons – which CERN said reach an energy ...

The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is back in action after a three-year break for maintenance and an upgrade with more energy, higher intensity beams and greater ...

Just last week it reached a new milestone — the particle accelerator is now smashing unprecedented numbers of protons into each other during each collision. IE 11 is not supported.

The Large Hadron Collider is the world's longest and most powerful particle accelerator, firing beams of subatomic particles around a 17-mile-long (27 kilometers) loop beneath the ground near ...

Particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider have failed to turn up potential dark matter candidates, but could galaxy cluster smashes be used as cosmic dark matter colliders?

The beams were initially expected to enter collision April 8, according to a March 14 report. It said, "Depending on how work progresses, this milestone may shift forwards or backwards by a few days." ...

Particle accelerator creates substance that hasn’t existed for 13 billion years. ... The hope is that measurements of these collisions will provide important insight into the quark-gluon plasma, ...

In 2011 the UPV/EHU's QUTIS Group published in the Physical Review Letters an innovative theoretical proposal to reproduce particle collisions like those taking place in large accelerators but without ...
