At ultracold temperatures, interatomic collisions are relatively simple, and their outcome can be controlled using a magnetic field. However, research by scientists led by Prof. Michal Tomza from the ...

Physicists found no tiny black holes at the LHC, but they just made the hiding place for new physics considerably smaller.

Proton-oxygen collisions at the LHC reveal how extreme cosmic rays trigger particle showers when they slam into Earth’s atmosphere.

Researchers have uncovered a counterintuitive phenomenon in collision dynamics: high-speed particles bounce back from wet walls much more strongly than expected. Integrating experimental observations ...

Researchers have proposed that exotic particles emitted by the Large Hadron Collider’s relativistic beams might reveal themselves in collisions of their own. True to its name, CERN’s Large Hadron ...

“Cosmic-ray air showers are sprays of particles raining down from high in the sky,” explains Jesse Liu of New York University, the lead author of a paper that describes the study. He adds that cosmic ...

In July 2012, physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe triumphantly announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, the long-sought linchpin of the subatomic world. Interacting with Higgs ...
