Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle accelerator, may have created the smallest drops of liquid made in the lab.
Ars Technica: CERN’s original data center for handling the data created by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is located in Geneva and is limited to 3.5 MW of power because of the amount the LHC itself draws. The 11 000 servers are primarily used...
Google Glass isn’t available to the masses but that hasn’t stopped the technology from making its way to the Large Hadron Collider.
A newly released YouTube video titled “Explorer Story: Andrew Vanden Heuvel [through Glass]”...
As a physics teacher, going to CERN to see the Large Hadron Collider was a dream come true for Andrew Vanden Heuvel. Armed with Google Glass, Heuvel's trip was even more meaningful as he shared every step in real time with his students in...
BBC: One of the detectors at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider is dedicated to studying the decay paths of B mesons—particles made of combinations of quarks. A paper submitted to Physical Review Letters has revealed that the decay path of the Bs...
Are you still scratching your head over what a particle accelerator like the Large Hadron Collider actually does? Don't feel bad, the LHC is the most complicated piece of scientific equipment mankind has ever built. And unless you're a physicist,...
Scientists are switching to the Dark Side as they prepare to ramp up the power at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
After capturing a species of Higgs boson, the particle hunters now have their sights set on a new trophy - dark matter.
A race is on...
No sign of any superpowers yet ... Pics It's probably the greatest scientific experiment of our time (or at least the biggest), a 27km round tunnel that fires trillions of protons in opposite directions over 11,000 times a second at 99.9999991 per...
Are you having a hard time dealing with the Large Hadron Collider's two-year maintenance shutdown? Do you miss waking up every morning to the potential of another big particle discovery in the news? Then strap this awesomely animated Higgs Boson...
The CERN Collider is undergoing a refitting, putting the Large Hadron Collider out of commission for two years. The collider is only five years old, but the two year revamp is aimed at doubling its power.
CERN scientist Marc Goulette made it clear...
Gordon, the unique supercomputer launched last year by the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at the University of California, San Diego, recently completed its most data-intensive task so far: rapidly processing raw data from almost one billion...
Physicists confirmed last week that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the -particle physics laboratory in Geneva, had indeed found a Higgs boson last July, marking a culmination of one of the longest and most expensive searches in science....
Science fans around the world were saddened when CERN announced its Large Hadron Collider would be shutting down for almost two years worth of repairs and upgrades. But as this video explains: that's ok. Because when the LHC is powered up again in...
Nothing is official yet, but it looks like the new particle detected in July in experiments conducted at the CERN Large Hadron Collider may indeed be the Higgs boson or so-called "God particle," scientists announced Thursday at a physics conference...
At the Moriond Conference today, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at CERN1's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) presented preliminary new results that further elucidate the particle discovered last year. Having analysed two and a half times more data than...
Scientists at the CERN's Large Hadron Collider are now certain they have found a Higgs boson particle.
Known as "The God Particle," the once theoretical Higgs boson is the mechanism that gives mass to elementary objects, meaning that its existence...
The latest updates from the Large Hadron Collider regarding details of the Higgs boson have so far been a yawn-fest.
Physicists from around the world are convening this week and next in Italy at the annual Rencontres de Moriond conference to...
Experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are set to present their latest results at the Moriond conference, which begins tomorrow in the Italian town of La Thuile, and runs until 16 March. Although all of the LHC experiments will present...
The CERN team in Switzerland uses the Large Hadron Collider to search for the elusive Higgs-Boson. A small team of researchers led by Larry Hunter, a professor of physics at Amherst College, can top them in one aspect: It is using the entire planet...
