A hacker known as Martha Root broke in and deleted three white supremacists websites at the end of a talk during the annual ...

Although its existence had been theorized for decades, the Higgs boson was finally observed to exist in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Since then, it has continued to be heavily ...

Physicists from Swansea University have played the leading role in a scientific breakthrough at CERN, developing an innovative technique that increases the antihydrogen trapping rate by a factor of ...

Using CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron, researchers generated plasma fireballs to simulate blazar jets. The beams stayed stable, suggesting plasma instabilities aren’t responsible for missing gamma ...

The ATLAS collaboration is one of the biggest scientific projects ever, with more than 5,500 members across 40 countries. Just days after Ireland confirmed its associate membership of the European ...

Ireland has officially joined the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) as an associate member state. CERN is an intergovernmental organisation that operates the largest particle physics ...

From today, Ireland’s researchers will have increased access to CERN’s scientific programmes, while Irish companies can compete in procurement schemes. After years of seeking membership, Ireland has ...

In a first, CERN physicists succeeded in observing matter-antimatter imbalance in baryons, fundamental particles that make up most of the observable universe. Reading time 3 minutes All matter in our ...

It is just over a year since Cern, home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), became the base for the three-year pilot phase of the Open Quantum Institute (OQI). The OQI is a multi-stakeholder, global, ...

Root pruning is one of those garden techniques that new gardeners hear about and scares them. But it is very easy to do and extremely helpful to the plants that you are doing it to because it allows ...

Forward-looking: Antimatter consists of particles with properties opposite to those of regular particles. It plays a central role in modern physics research and forms naturally through cosmic ...

There’s a lot of matter around, which ensures that any antimatter produced experiences a very short lifespan. Studying antimatter, therefore, has been extremely difficult. But that’s changed a bit in ...
