The LHC facility at CERN is famous for the discovery of the Higgs boson, dubbed the ‘God particle’.

How prepared are we for a solar storm, bad software update or cybersecurity event that could trigger widespread loss of ...

An innovative algorithm for detecting collisions of high-speed particles within nuclear fusion reactors has been developed, inspired by technologies used to determine whether bullets hit targets in ...

Researchers have uncovered a counterintuitive phenomenon in collision dynamics: high-speed particles bounce back from wet walls much more strongly than expected. Integrating experimental observations ...

A new biography of Luis Alvarez captures the details but misses the drama in the career of a scientist whose work ranged from the Manhattan Project to the death of the dinosaurs. By Jennifer Szalai ...

Ion-atom collision dynamics explores the fundamental interactions that occur when charged particles impact neutral atoms, leading to processes such as elastic scattering, excitation, ionisation and ...

Collisional resistivity saturation has a hard quantum ceiling, a University of Toronto experiment shows: ultracold ...

In the recent decade, progress in black hole (BH) physics has been driven by landmark experimental achievements — from the first observation of ...
