Alexander Lenz argues that the charm quark is an experimental and theoretical enigma that has the potential to shed light on ...

CERN Courier is essential reading for the global high-energy physics community. The website and associated print magazine highlight the latest developments in particle physics and related fields, ...

From its pristine vantage point on the International Space Station, the Calorimetric Electron Telescope, CALET, has uncovered anomalies in the spectra of protons and electrons below the cosmic-ray kne ...

The Strings 2024 conference looked at the latest developments in the interconnected fields of quantum gravity and quantum field theory, all under the overarching framework of string theory. The ...

Launched in February 2019, the European Union project ESCAPE is making strides towards an open scientific analysis infrastructure for particle physics and astronomy. Accelerator physicist and science ...

The Chamonix Workshop upheld its long tradition of fostering open and collaborative discussions within CERN’s accelerator and physics communities. The wonder and awe that we sense when we look at the ...

Stefano Vitale describes the status of LISA as the space-based gravitational-wave observatory moves into its final design phase.

Collaboration is the engine-room of scientific progress for Europe’s large-scale research facilities. That truism also applies in equal measure to the enabling technologies that underpin day-to-day ...

The wonder and awe that we sense when we look at the starry skies is a major motivation to do science. Both Plato (Theaetetus 155d) and Aristotle (Metaphysics 982b12) wrote that philosophy starts in w ...

How can Europe’s large-scale research facilities better engage with industry and, in so doing, broaden their user base while amplifying downstream socioeconomic impacts? That’s the central question ...

Louis Lyons traces the origins of the “five sigma” criterion in particle physics, and asks whether it remains a relevant marker for claiming the discovery of new physics.

The 41st symposium, Lattice 2024, welcomed 500 participants to the University of Liverpool from 28 July to 3 August.
