Kétévi Assamagan’s contributions to physics go beyond his research at the Large Hadron Collider.
The Higgs boson is the only fundamental particle known to be scalar, meaning it has no quantum spin. This fact answers questions about our universe, but it also raises new ones.
Scientists in the particle physics community are bringing environmental and climate issues to the table in discussions about future research.
From CERN, Jan. 20, 2023: CERN is celebrating the completion of civil-engineering work for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider. This will improve its performance by increasing the number of particle collisions and boosting the potential for discoveries. The HL-LHC is expected to start operating in 2029.
A recent report underscores the importance of energy consumption and cost to decisions about future large-scale particle accelerator projects.
Scientists and engineers from more than 50 countries collaborate with Fermilab to develop state-of-the-art technologies and solve the mysteries of matter, energy, space and time. Here are highlights of how they advanced science and technology this year.
Scientists and engineers from around the world collaborate with Fermilab to develop state-of-the-art technologies and solve the mysteries of matter, energy, space and time. Here is a look at 10 ways they advanced science and technology this year.
Fermilab scientists are digging deep into data from the CMS experiment at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, searching for very rare decays of the Higgs boson.
For the first time, physicists have a statistically significant measurement of the joint polarization of W and Z bosons.
