Now that a Higgs-like boson has been discovered at the Large Hadron Collider, proposals to build colliders that churn out the new particle are gathering momentum.
With the Large Hadron Collider up and running, expectations are high: Shouldn't discoveries start pouring in? These things don't happen overnight. We trace the long, careful path from intriguing data to official discovery.
The compulsion in all of us to search for the truth, to search for the meaning of life and the origin of the world, is the force uniting us on the Compact Muon Solenoid detector experiment –- 2000+
When the LHC collider and its experiments are being switched on in 2007, scientists around the world will be eager to monitor the start-up in real time.
This August, one hundred and fifty postdocs and advanced graduate students from around the world will gather on the Illinois prairie to enhance their understanding of particle colliders at the CERN
