Recreating Big Bang matter on Earth
Our fifth story in the LHC Physics at Ten series looks at how the LHC has recreated and greatly advanced our knowledge of the state of matter that is believed to have existed shortly after the Big Bang
A transportable antiproton trap to unlock the secrets of antimatter
The BASE collaboration is developing a transportable antiproton trap to make higher-precision measurements of the properties of antimatter
ATLAS sets new limits on exotic types of long-lived particles
The result surpasses previous best mass limits achieved with CERN’s predecessor collider to the LHC
CMS sees evidence of top quarks in collisions between heavy nuclei
The result opens the path to study in a new and unique way the extreme state of matter that is thought to have existed shortly after the Big Bang
LHCb sees new form of matter–antimatter asymmetry in strange beauty particles
The LHCb collaboration has observed time-dependent matter–antimatter asymmetry in the decays of strange beauty particles into charged kaons
A roadmap for the future
CERN Director-General Fabiola Gianotti and Gian Giudice, Head of CERN's Theory Department, comment on the scientific vision and priorities for the field laid out in the recently updated European Strategy for Particle Physics
NA63 makes crystal-clear study of radiation reaction
The NA63 collaboration has made a high-precision study of the phenomenon of radiation reaction, using particle beams and crystals
LHCb discovers first “open-charm” tetraquark
The particle, which has been called X(2900), was detected by analysing all the data LHCb has recorded so far from collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider
NA62 sees first significant evidence of rare process
The result paves the way for searching for signs of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics
Breaking new ground in the search for dark matter
Our fourth story in the LHC Physics at Ten series discusses the LHC’s hunt for the hypothetical particle that may make up dark matter
