A once-fanciful particle collider that seemed impossible to build is now getting serious funding attention. The muon collider could unlock mysteries about our universe that current machines can't solve.
Scientists at CERN have discovered a new particle four times heavier than a proton, opening fresh insights into how the universe works. The breakthrough marks the first discovery since major upgrades to the world's most powerful particle collider.
Physicists at the world's largest particle collider just found a never-before-seen building block of matter that could unlock secrets about the most powerful force in the universe. The discovery marks the 80th new particle found at the facility and is only the second of its kind ever observed.
America's only particle collider just closed after recreating the universe's first moments for a quarter century. Its shutdown isn't an ending—it's making room for an even more powerful machine.
America's largest particle collider ended its groundbreaking 25-year run, but scientists are already building something even better in its place. The machine recreated conditions from microseconds after the Big Bang and solved mysteries about the building blocks of matter.
The world's most powerful particle accelerator just got a second job: keeping thousands of homes warm. CERN is redirecting waste heat from its massive collider to heat an entire French neighborhood instead of releasing it into the air.
