Inside the Large Hadron Collider, protons slam together at nearly the speed of light, creating a brief fireball of quarks and ...

These are the event displays of Large Hadron Collider physicists’ dreams. Our current understanding of particle physics, known as the Standard Model, has been tremendously successful. Over the past 40 ...

On a sunny spring day one of us (Dixon) entered the London Underground at the Mile End station on his way to Heath­row Airport. Eyeing a stranger, one of more than three million daily passengers on ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...
