ATTRACT unveils the projects that will benefit from its €28 million fund for innovation
ATTRACT, a research and innovation project funded by the European Union and backed by a consortium of nine partners, including CERN, will commit €28 million to finance 36 projects from more than 20 countries
Higgs10: Ten things we’ve learned about the Higgs boson in the past ten years
Since its discovery in 2012, the Higgs boson has become one of the most powerful tools to probe our understanding of nature and, with that, examine some of the biggest open questions in physics today.
HL-LHC magnet endurance test further confirms niobium–tin’s resilience
A full-size, US-produced HL-LHC quadrupole magnet based on niobium–tin technology has passed a critical endurance test, another step towards confirming the technology’s viability inside accelerators

CERN welcomes INFN and IIT as new members of its IBM Quantum Network hub
Two European research institutes have recently signed an agreement to become the latest members of CERN’s hub in the IBM Quantum Network.
ATLAS measures joint polarisation of carriers of the weak force
Joint-polarisation measurements of the W and Z bosons provide new opportunities to look for physics beyond the Standard Model
CMS measures rare particle decay with high precision
Using LHC Run 2 data, CMS has precisely measured the rare decay of strange B-mesons to muon-antimuon pairs. While its properties agree with Standard Model predictions, it may provide clues to new discoveries in Run 3
The third run of the Large Hadron Collider has successfully started
A round of applause broke out in the CERN Control Centre on 5 July at 4.47 p.m. CEST when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detectors started recording high-energy collisions at the unprecedented energy of 13.6 TeV
LHCb discovers three new exotic particles
The collaboration has observed a new kind of “pentaquark” and the first-ever pair of “tetraquarks”
ATLAS and CMS release results of most comprehensive studies yet of Higgs boson’s properties
The collaborations have used the largest samples of proton–proton collision data recorded so far by the experiments to study the unique particle in unprecedented detail
