CERN at 70: Smashing elementary particles for humanity DW 09/25/2024

CERN, celebrating its 70th anniversary, is renowned for groundbreaking discoveries including the Higgs Boson and technological advancements through particle physics.

The Vacuum of Space Will Decay Sooner Than Expected

Subtle quantum corrections can influence particle behavior, creating complex dynamics within quantum fields.
The potential decay of the Higgs field poses profound implications for the universe's fundamental structure.

China Has Plans for the World's Largest Particle Collider

China plans to build a US$5 billion particle smasher to study the Higgs boson in detail, potentially beating Europe's proposed mega-collider.

You're made of energy: The strange truth about where mass comes from

The Higgs field contributes little to the mass of the Universe, contrary to common belief.

How B-mesons are threatening to break the Standard Model

B-mesons could reveal physics beyond the Standard Model, challenging existing theories with new decay data.

Can the Higgs Boson Shine on Broadway?

The creation of a Broadway musical about particle physics, based on the discovery of the Higgs boson, showcases an unconventional yet intriguing approach to storytelling.
