ATLAS Experiment
Three Ways to Bust Ghostly Dark Matter
Symmetry: CERN and US Increase Cooperation
The United States and the European physics laboratory have formally agreed to partner on continued LHC research, upcoming neutrino research and a future collider.
Symmetry: Charge-Parity Violation
Matter and antimatter behave differently. Scientists hope that investigating how might someday explain why we exist.
Next up: A Turbocharged LHC
Physicists are already preparing upgrades that will increase the physics reach of the Large Hadron Collider in the next decade.
Symmetry: New Discovery? Or Just Another Bump?
For physicists, seeing is not always believing.
Symmetry: Where the Higgs Belongs
The Higgs doesn’t quite fit in with the other particles of the Standard Model of particle physics.
Symmetry: Combined Results Find Higgs Still Standard
The CMS and ATLAS experiments combined forces to more precisely measure properties of the Higgs boson.
Symmetry: One Higgs is the Loneliest Number
Physicists discovered one type of Higgs boson in 2012. Now they’re looking for more.
Symmetry: Something Goes Bump in the Data
The ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC see something mysterious, but it’s too soon to pop the Champagne.
Symmetry: More Data, No Problem
Scientists are ready to handle the increased data of the current run of the Large Hadron Collider.
