Large Hadron Collider

It's 54 million times smaller than the Large Hadron Collider.

When the High Luminosity upgrade is complete, the LHC will collect five to ten times as much data on the nature of the universe.

The Large Hadron Collider is the most advanced and complex machine ever built by humanity, but there's only so much you can do with a 27-kilometer particle collider. So, CERN has approved plans to build a much larger collider called the Future Circular Collider (FCC) with a 100-kilometer (62-mile) circumference.

According to the new CERN report, the FCC could have a 62-mile (100 kilometers) track in the same region of Europe -- that's four times larger than the LHC. When completed, the FCC should be capable of smashing atoms at unprecedented energies of up to 100 TeV.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the most complex machine ever built by humanity. It took thousands of scientists from more than 100 countries to make the LHC a reality, and it became a reality exactly ten years ago today.

CERN has broken ground on the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), which will result in more particle collisions and more data to help scientists unravel the mysteries of the universe.

The Massive Timing Hodoscope for Ultra Stable Neutral Particles (which goes by the inaccurate but much simpler nickname MATHUSLA) will look for particles the LHC misses because they're too stable.

The Large Hadron Collider still hasn't destroyed the world, but it is running low on disk space.

The world's first quasiparticle collider could grant crucial insight into to behavior of particles that barely exist at all.

Surprising readings from December just won't go away -- and unlike the LHC's last big particle, this one would upset physics rather than confirming it.
