The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland, is the largest particle accelerator ever built and one of the most ambitious scientific projects in human history. Beyond the physics ...

The Higgs boson self-coupling is a phenomenon where the Higgs interacts with itself, which can manifest in particle collisions at the CERN LHC through the production of Higgs boson pairs.

A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future physicists is crucial.

About a billion pairs of particles collide every second within the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). With them, a petabyte of collision data floods the detectors and pours through highly selective filters, ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing them into tiny targets.
