The Higgs boson, discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, plays a central role in the Standard Model of particle physics, endowing elementary particles such as quarks with mass through ...

Scientists say they've solved a decade-old puzzle about the enigmatic 'strange quark', one of the fundamental building blocks of matter. Their findings, published recently in the journal Physical ...

Evidence of a particle made up of four tightly bound quarks tests physicists’ understanding of the force that holds protons and neutrons together. The particles in a hadron are bound tightly together ...

Can the neutrino eyes of humanity, observatories such as the IceCube in Antarctica, really see neutrinos coming from deep space? The answer is beginning to come from experiments at the Large Hadron ...
