The signal could be caused by a quasi-bound top–antitop meson commonly called "toponium".

The Brundtland Report definition of sustainable development is “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”.

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider continues to deliver surprises. While searching for additional Higgs bosons, the CMS collaboration may have instead uncovered evidence for the smallest composite particle ...

With a new measurement imminent, the Courier explores the experimental results and theoretical calculations used to predict ‘muon g-2’ – one of particle physics’ most precisely known quantities and ...

Quantum Drama, by Jim Baggott and John L Heilbron, Oxford University Press One hundred years of insights Jim Baggott and John Heilbron don’t neglect later quantum pioneers like John Bell (pictured).

Collisions between lead ions at the LHC generate the hottest and densest system ever created in the laboratory. Under these extreme conditions, quarks and gluons are no longer confined inside hadrons ...

After winning the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1979, Abdus Salam wanted to bring world-class physics research opportunities to South Asia. This was the beginning of the BCSPIN programme, encompassing ...

Over the past 10 years, Mónica Bello facilitated hundreds of encounters between artists and scientists as curator of the Arts at CERN programme. As she steps down, she shares her reflections on the ...

Vivian Poulin asks if the tension between a direct measurement of the Hubble constant and constraints from the early universe could be resolved by new physics. On large scales the dominant motion of ...
