Using collisions between lead nuclei at the LHC, the ALICE collaboration has measured an interference pattern akin to that of the famous double-slit experiment
NA62 announces its first search for long-lived particles
CERN’s kaon factory pushes the energy frontier to probe uncharted territories of many beyond-the-Standard-Model theories
Breakthrough in rapid cooling for BASE antiprotons
The experiment has developed a new device for cooling antiprotons more efficiently and for considerably increasing the precision of measurements of their fundamental properties
AMBER releases its first results
The experiment’s preliminary results explore the production cross section of the antiproton, which may provide physicists with clues in the search for dark matter

Digital archaeology: new LEP data now available to all
Retrieving and preserving access to data from experiments that ran in the 90s is a complex task carried out by passionate experts in the IT department
CERN70: The end of the alphabet
Carlo Rubbia’s name is closely related to the discovery of the W and Z particles at CERN. In 1984, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, together with Simon van der Meer, for the work he had done as head of the UA1 collaboration
