The LHCb experiment has taken a leap in precision physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In a new paper submitted to ...

That’s what scientists at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have been doing for years. But what have they found? And what’s next ...

There wasn't a lot of gold and it didn't last long, but the results are still impressive. For centuries, alchemists dreamed of turning lead into gold — not through magic, but by unlocking the hidden ...

The ancient dream of turning lead into gold is now a reality – but it’s not quite what the alchemists might have hoped for.

CERN's ALICE experiment turned lead into gold—briefly—reviving alchemists' old dreams with modern nuclear physics.

The Large Hadron Collider has led to groundbreaking discoveries, but scientists are now focused on an even larger project—a ...

A lead nucleus emits an intense electromagnetic field. In near-misses, a reaction known as electromagnetic dissociation can ...

As federal funding cuts impact decades of research, scientists could turn to black holes for cheaper, natural alternatives to ...

Once a lead nucleus has transformed by losing protons, it is no longer in the perfect orbit that keeps it circulating inside the vacuum beam pipe of the Large Hadron Collider. In a matter of ...

This past month, CERN completed a feasibility study regarding LHC’s successor, currently named the Future Circular Collider (FCC). Once performing high-energy collisions by 2070, the FCC will ...
