Lu Lu looks forward to the next two decades of neutrino astrophysics, exploring the remarkable detector concepts needed to ...

Nuria Catalan Lasheras and Igor Syratchev explain why klystrons are strategically important to the future of the field – and ...

Antoni Shtipliyski offers advice on how early-career researchers can transition into machine-learning roles in industry.

DESY’s new chair, Beate Heinemann, reflects on the laboratory’s evolving role in science and society – from building ...

A report from the CMS experiment. Fig. 1. The data are consistent with the signal expected from a Υ meson decaying to a pair of tau leptons. The backgrounds are estimated using a polynomial (blue), ...

Cosmic correlations Radio astronomers use precise timing measurements of ultra-fast millisecond pulsars to search for the distinctive correlation signature created by a background of gravitational ...

We’ve come a long way The first PhyStat workshop discussed confidence intervals, “which may assume bizarre shapes, as happens when a variety of different experiments search for neutrino oscillations”.

Since the discovery of the electron and proton over 100 years ago, physicists have observed a “zoo” of different types of particles. While some of these particles have been fundamental, like neutrinos ...

In the Standard Model (SM), W and Z bosons acquire mass and longitudinal polarisation through electroweak (EW) symmetry breaking, where the Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism transforms Goldstone bosons ...

The final report of a detailed study investigating the technical and financial feasibility of a Future Circular Collider (FCC) at CERN was released on 31 March. Building on a conceptual design study ...
