In 2011, the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) was installed on the International Space Station (ISS). Since then, it has recorded more than 200 billion cosmic ray events and, while most of their ...

They won’t pinch you and you won’t find them on the beach. The name of the new radio-frequency crab cavities has nothing to do with their appearance and is merely illustrative of the effect they will ...

Thanks to 300 active servers located in 52 different countries, some 400 000 users can experience the powerful and user-friendly features that Indico offers to any event organiser. Born about twenty ...

What do rope winding and giant pasta shapes have to do with particle physics? The answer is a new superconducting magnet prototype under development at CERN, lovingly named Fusillo because of its ...

A slender glass fibre no thicker than a human hair placed across a particle beam could improve accelerator monitoring. A team is testing the use of hollow-core optical fibres to measure the profile ...

CERN’s CLEAR facility investigates novel medical applications of electron beams and the resilience of electronics in space. A short walk away on the CERN site, MEDICIS is developing ways to produce a ...

Following the international open call launched in November 2025, Arts at CERN and the Nobel Prize Museum are pleased to announce that Lithuanian artist Emilija Škarnulytė has been selected as the ...

A 2018 ATLAS event display consistent with the production of a pair of W bosons from two photons, where the W bosons decay into a muon and an electron (visible in the detector) and neutrinos (not ...

Located at CERN’s North Area and receiving beams from the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), the NA64 and NA62 experiments search for dark matter, complementing searches at the LHC, as they cover a ...

Innovations in various domains of integrated circuit technologies are crucial for enabling this, required to continuously ...

Three young entrepreneurs inspired by their time at CERN have launched ProtonMail, a secure email service with a sophisticated encryption system to deter would-be spies. Computer scientist Andy Yen ...

To learn about this, researchers are going to be looking for Higgs boson interactions with second generation matter particles, the muon and the charm quark, and also looking for extra Higgs-like ...
