Before CERN had the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), that famous tunnel under France and Switzerland was home to the Large Electron–Positron collider (LEP). It was switched on 30 years ago in 1989. and ...

After eleven years and a nail-biting three-month reprieve, the death knell for the Large Electron–Positron collider (LEP) in Geneva has finally been sounded. Last week, Luciano Maiani, director ...

FASER is located 1,500 feet (480 meters) downstream of the ATLAS experiment, in disused tunnels that were once part of the LHC's predecessor, the Large Electron-Positron Collider.

The first stage is a electron-positron collider (FCC-ee) that will slam together negatively charged electrons, their positive antiparticle counterparts, known as positrons, and other light particles.

But it would potentially get us a two-for-one, just as the tunnels occupied by the LHC did. Initially, an electron-positron collider would be built for a detailed characterization of the Higgs boson.

The Large Hadron Collider is just that — large. The particle accelerator is the world’s biggest, and inside its nearly 17-mile-ring of superconducting magnets, particles collide at nearly the ...

The Large Hadron Collider is the most advanced and complex machine ever built by humanity, but there's only so much you can do with a 27-kilometer particle collider. So, CERN has approved plans to ...

CERN physicist Jamie Boyd enters a tunnel close to the ATLAS detector, an experiment at the largest particle accelerator in the world. From there, he turns into an underground space labeled TI12.
