New Data From COSINE-100, ANAIS-112 Disputes DAMA Dark Matter Results
New results from COSINE-100 and ANAIS-112 show no signal matching the DAMA experiment claim, weakening evidence for dark matter detection and shifting focus toward new search strategies.

Scientists Drive Antimatter On A Road Trip To Test Stability Across Route
European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is experimenting with whether antimatter particles can remain stable during road transit trial.

CERN Experiments Confirm Early Universe Behaved Like a Near-Perfect Fluid
Physicists at CERN have directly observed fluid-like behaviour in the quark–gluon plasma that filled the early universe. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider revealed wake-shaped ripples forming behind fast-moving quarks, similar to bow waves in liquids. These quark wakes confirm that the primordial “soup” of quarks and gluons behaved as ...

Scientists Recreate Cosmic ‘Fireballs’ in Lab to Solve Mystery of Missing Gamma Rays
Scientists recreated cosmic plasma beams at CERN to study why certain gamma rays vanish in space. The results showed the beams remain stable, suggesting ancient intergalactic magnetic fields, not beam collapse, hide the signals. The discovery provides new insight into cosmic jets and the universe’s earliest magnetic traces.

Scientists Transform Lead into Gold, But Only for a Fleeting Moment
In a landmark experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, scientists briefly turned lead into gold by removing three protons through near-miss atomic collisions. The ALICE collaboration generated 89,000 gold atoms per second, though each existed only fleetingly. While economically insignificant, the breakthrough showcases the precision of particle ...

Scientists Spot a Key Difference in Matter and Antimatter Decay
A major difference in the decay of matter and antimatter has been observed in beauty-lambda baryons, according to new research from the LHCb experiment at CERN. The discovery provides insight into why the universe contains more matter than antimatter. Scientists found that the chance of this decay difference occurring randomly is less than one in t...

CERN's ALPHA Experiment Achieves Precise Antihydrogen Measurement
The ALPHA experiment at CERN has recorded antihydrogen’s 1S–2S transition with unprecedented accuracy, using laser cooling to refine measurements. The technique significantly reduces data collection time, allowing repeated observations. These findings enhance comparisons between hydrogen and antihydrogen, pushing the boundaries of fundamental p...

Large Hadron Collider Detects Heaviest Antimatter Particle, Sheds Light on Early Universe Conditions
CERN's ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has identified the heaviest antimatter particle observed to date. By replicating early universe conditions, this discovery provides new insights into the dominance of matter over antimatter. The particle, an antimatter counterpart of hyperhelium-4, emerges from a state of matter known as "qua...

CERN's BASE-STEP Successfully Transports Protons, Paving Way for Antimatter Transport
CERN scientists have successfully tested a new method for transporting particles like protons, using the BASE-STEP system. This breakthrough opens the door to transporting antimatter safely across long distances, facilitating more precise experiments at laboratories such as Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf. The system, which uses vacuum cha...

Mark Thomson Appointed CERN Director-General, Takes Charge of Collider Project
Mark Thomson has been named as the new Director-General of CERN, where he will oversee the $17 billion Future Circular Collider project. Thomson, a British physicist known for his role in the discovery of the Higgs boson, will lead the laboratory through challenges such as securing funding and addressing scepticism from key contributors like German...

"Big Upgrade Happening, India Can Play Key Role": Scientist On Large Hadron Collider
Archana Sharma, an Indian-origin scientist working at CERN, said there is an ambitious plan to build a new, much larger collider in Geneva.

Scientists at CERN's LHC Observe Three "Exotic" Particles for First Time
Scientists working with the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered three subatomic particles never seen before as they work to unlock the building blocks of the universe. They will help physicists better understand how quarks bind together into composite particles.

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider Set to Smash Protons Together at Unprecedented Energy Levels
The Large Hadron Collider will begin its third run today, as it begins to smash protons together at an unprecedented energy level of 13.6 trillion electronvolts. The world's largest and most powerful particle collider will run around the clock for four years after a three-year break for upgrades. The newly upgraded collider will look at the Higgs B...

Large Hadron Collider Sets a New World Record for Proton Acceleration
With its proton beams, the newly enhanced Large Hadron Collider (LHC) set a new world record. The LHC, which is housed at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland, reopened on April 22 after a planned three-year sabbatical during which the facility was upgraded.

CERN's Large Hadron Collider Restarts Operations After a 3-Year Break for Upgrades
The Large Hadron Collider restarted Friday after a three-year break for upgrades that will allow it to smash protons together at even greater speeds, in the hope of making new ground-breaking discoveries.
