Last month, a group of researchers in the United States presented a rousing vision for the future of high-energy particle physics. The recommendations from the Particle Physics Project Prioritization ...

“SMASH! Colossal colliders are unlocking the secrets of the universe.” The cover story of the 16 April 1990 issue of Time magazine discussed giant particle accelerators, including the Superconducting ...

At a fundamental level, what is our Universe made of? This question has driven physics forward for centuries. Even with all the advances we've made, we still don't know it all. While the Large Hadron ...

Particle physicists are unlikely evangelists, but in papers, at conferences and with T-shirts, stickers and memes, many of them are spreading the good word of a muon collider—a next-generation machine ...

Europe is pushing forwards with plans to build a 91-kilometre-long, 15-billion-swiss-franc (US$17-billion) supercollider underneath the French and Swiss countryside. The machine would allow ...
