Proton-oxygen collisions at the LHC reveal how extreme cosmic rays trigger particle showers when they slam into Earth’s atmosphere.

The first-known observations of matter–antimatter asymmetry in a decaying composite subatomic particle that belongs to the baryon class are reported from the LHCb experiment located at the Large ...

Muons are one of the key subatomic particles for discovering new physics, but tracking them after particle collisions can be difficult and prone to error. A new study ...

Physicists may have yet another fundamental particle left to discover. When physicists at the Large Hardon Collider discovered the Higgs boson back in 2012, they’d found the last missing piece of the ...
