In a groundbreaking discovery, scientists have revealed an unprecedented map of the forces acting within a proton. This map ...

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific ...

The answer is a new superconducting magnet prototype under development at CERN, lovingly named Fusillo because of its shape. Originally, CERN physicists became interested in developing this ...

A new technique in detector fabrication could change high-energy physics forever. By using additive manufacturing, ...

A new optical fiber connection linking CERN and the French National Metrological Institute in Paris is now operational to provide a stable frequency reference for antimatter experiments.

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is making strides in superconducting magnet technology with its “Fusillo” prototype. This unique magnet, named for its resemblance to the ...

Scientists have achieved an incredible feat—mapping the forces inside a proton with extreme precision, uncovering the immense ...

Ireland's application to join the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) has been accepted in principle, paving the way for the country to become an associate member in 2026.

Mark Thomson, who will take over from Fabiola Gianotti as director-general of CERN next year, talks to Michael Banks about his plans in the hot seat and the challenges ahead for high-energy physics ...

Unlike conventional X-ray radiotherapy, which deposits energy along its path through tissue, hadron therapy utilizes beams of protons or light ions that release the majority of their energy at a ...

In 1995, physicists at CERN announced that they had successfully created the first atoms of antihydrogen at the Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR). The researchers allowed antiprotons circulating ...

Density functional theory (DFT) is a cornerstone tool of modern physics, chemistry, and engineering used to explore the behavior of electrons. While essential in modeling systems with many ...
