The even larger project is the Future Circular Collider. The 56-mile-long (91-kilometer) project has not yet gotten the green ...
Scientists have activated the smallest particle accelerator ever built—a tiny device roughly the size of a coin. This ...
It accelerates protons and ions to a speed never achieved before by humans, allowing them to probe new energy realms in ...
The European physics laboratory CERN is planning to build a mega collider by 2070. Critics say the plan could lead to ruin ...
The LHC is still in operation. But CERN is already planning its successor, which will have a circumference of over 90 ...
Many particle accelerators rely on superconducting radiofrequency components made of niobium. Nuclear physicists found that ...
Europe's CERN laboratory said on Monday that a detailed analysis revealed no technical obstacles to building the world's ...
At nearly 56.5 miles across, the FCC would be more than three times the LHC’s size while including eight surface laboratory ...
What better way to communicate accelerator physics to the public than using a functioning particle accelerator?
To do that, you’d need a bigger particle accelerator, and CERN – where the LHC is located – is considering just that. The Future Circular Collider (FCC) is to be over three times the length ...
Why matter dominates over antimatter in our universe has long been a major cosmic mystery to physicists. A new finding by the ...
