The LHC-watcher’s field guide
These are the event displays of Large Hadron Collider physicists’ dreams.
New Higgs boson observations reveal clues on the nature of mass
From Scientific American, June 6, 2018: Fermilab’s Don Lincoln explains the significance of scientists’ first observation of the famous Higgs boson, responsible for imparting mass, interacting with the heaviest particle in the universe.
Fermilab, United States contribute to major upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider
A groundbreaking ceremony at CERN celebrates the start of the civil-engineering work for the High-Luminosity LHC. Fermilab is leading the U.S. contribution to the HL-LHC, in addition to building new components for the upgraded detector for the CMS experiment.
CERN scientists find link between Higgs boson, two top quarks
From UPI, June 4, 2018: Fermilab Deputy Director Joe Lykken says that “deeply understanding how the Higgs interacts with known particles could help lead us to physics beyond the Standard Model.”
World’s largest atom smasher could help explain where mass comes from
From Live Science, June 4, 2018: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln writes about two new results on how scientists found the Higgs boson popping up along with the heaviest particle ever discovered. The results could help us better understand one of the most fundamental problems in physics — why matter has mass.
We’re going to need a bigger blackboard
Watch SLAC theorist Lance Dixon write out a new formula that will contribute to a better understanding of certain particle collisions.
One quadrillion LHC collisions lead to a rare discovery
From NOVA NEXT, June 4, 2018: The CMS and ATLAS collaborations report a substantial new advance in the understanding of the Higgs boson, the particle that is responsible for giving mass to fundamental subatomic particles.
