Javier Duarte kicked off his scientific career by witnessing the biggest particle physics event in decades. On July 4, 2012, scientists at the laboratory CERN near Geneva announced the discovery of ...

Scientists can’t take pictures of the Higgs boson. But they can find proof of its existence by watching “E=mc2” play out in hundreds of millions of particle collisions per second and detecting how it ...

Ten years ago, scientists announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, which helps explain why elementary particles (the smallest building blocks of nature) have mass. For particle physicists, this was ...

Particle physics dives into the very depths of the universe – the particles that make up atoms. Over the past century, we ...

Ten years after the discovery of the Higgs boson, the ATLAS experiment at CERN probes its kinematic properties with a significantly larger dataset from 2015–2018 and provides further insights on its ...

The discovery of a new subatomic particle that is likely the elusive Higgs boson — a particle thought to give all other matter its mass — could be an important step toward uncovering dark matter, ...

Tomorrow morning, CERN is expected to announce the Large Hadron Collider's discovery of the Higgs boson subatomic particle. This particle, which has been strongly sought after since it was theorized ...

Emily Conover spent one of the most consequential moments in recent physics history in a cavern near a nuclear power plant in France. At the time, Conover was a Ph.D. student in particle physics ...
