The intense programme of EPS-HEP 2023 underlined the vibrancy and diversity of the field.

In the 11 years since its discovery at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the Higgs boson has become a central avenue for shedding light on the fundamental structure of the Universe. Precise measurements of the properties of this special particle are among the most powerful tools physicists have to test the Standard Model, currently the theory that best describes the world of particles and their interactions. At the Lepton Photon Conference this week, the ATLAS collaboration reported how it has me...

Physicists at CERN in Geneva have obtained a new and more accurate measurement of the mass of the W boson, contradicting last year’s discovery by the Fermilab in Chicago that suggested a flaw in the Standard Model theory describing elementary particles and fundamental forces (ANSA)

The new value, presented in March at the Rencontres de Moriond, contradicts CDF measurement published last year.

A team of researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have measured the mass of the W boson and found it to be in line with the Standard Model of

Does the W boson break the Standard Model? Depends on how you measure it.

Last year a new finding in particle physics stunned scientists: a fundamental particle responsible for one of the Universe's four fundamental forces was heavier than predicted.

A new and improved look at the mass of the W boson is in close alignment with theory, but it doesn’t negate an earlier, controversial measurement.
