Giuseppe Fidecaro was among the small group of physicists who performed the first experiment at CERN to provide results in 1958 that would spread the Laboratory’s name around the world

Neutron stars in the Universe, ultracold atomic gases in the laboratory, and the quark–gluon plasma created in collisions of atomic nuclei at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC): they may seem totally unrelated but, surprisingly enough, they have something in common. They are all a fluid-like state of matter made up of strongly interacting particles. Insights into the properties and behaviour of any of these almost perfect liquids may be key to understanding nature across scales that are orders of...

The Workshop will review the theory challenges opened by recent high-precision measurements at the LHC of mW and αS, where theoretical systematics plays a critical role in setting the ultimate precision that the experiments can achieve. 

GREENSBORO — An unlicensed 24-year-old driver has been charged with misdemeanor death by vehicle and other offenses after hitting a man Wednesday as he tried to put gas in his

The current precision on determining CKM matrix elements is below a per cent in several cases, and tensions between results are present, for example, in the Vus/Vud plane. Investigating that problem is essential for searching for new physics through weak decays.

Almost three years ago, deep in the pandemic, my kids got me my first Raspberry Pi. That started me on an adventure with Home Assistant, mostly because it was one of the first search results for "what to do with a Raspberry Pi."I'm still going, and learned much since then, so it is time for a quick update.

After three years of work, mobilising the expertise of scientists and engineers around the world, the Feasibility Study for the Future Circular Collider (FCC) - a particle collider with a circumference of 90.7 km that could potentially succeed the High-Luminosity LHC in the mid-2040s – has now reached the half-way mark. The Feasibility Study is expected to be completed in 2025. The CERN Council reviewed the work undertaken in a fruitful meeting on 2 February 2024. It congratulated and thanked ...

Legacy High School will host a Valentines Day-themed blood drive on Wednesday.

In our most basic understanding of our Solar System, planets are drawn into the orbit of our massive star, the Sun. But what happens to planet-sized objects tha
