The beam dynamics of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) underpin its ability to push the frontiers of high-energy physics by maintaining intensely focused particle streams and ensuring their safe, stable ...

Since inaugural operations began in 2008, the LHC has allowed researchers to probe some of the universe’s most profound and mysterious forces. But investigating the deepest questions of modern physics ...

The futurist Arthur C. Clarke famously said that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Well, a team of physicists just showed that a common particle production method ...

For centuries, great thinkers of the Greco-Roman, Islamic, Medieval, and even early Enlightenment worlds investigated the possibilities of alchemy—the process of transforming base metals (i.e. lead) ...

LHC experiments don’t create large gold nuggets — but some particles within a beam of lead ions can turn into gold for about a microsecond. The dream of seventeenth-century alchemists has been ...

The Large Hadron Collider(LHC) in Geneva has collided heavy nuclei at the highest energies ever recorded. The energy of the lead ion collisions currently taking place at Cern are twice as high as that ...
