Ninety million times a year, when protons crash together at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), they produce, in their wreckage, a top quark and an anti-top quark, the heaviest known elementary particles ...

The quest to understand the “God particle” may have just hit a wall in China. An ambitious multibillion-dollar plan to build the world’s largest particle collider – a machine that could have placed ...

Get cozy with Collider’s week of exclusive reveals across film and TV. Back in 2021, Hannah’s love of all things nerdy collided with her passion for writing — and she hasn’t stopped since. She covers ...

Hypothetical particles called axions have been sought by physicists for decades, as they are the leading candidate for what makes up dark matter. But we may not need new experiments to find exotic ...

After a decade of construction, the new-and-improved super Pioneering High Energy Nuclear Interaction eXperiment (sPHENIX) is officially ready for science as it passes a key “standard candle” ...

The Bendix G-15 refurbished by [David at Usagi Electric] is well known as the oldest fully operational digital computer in North America. The question [David] gets most is “what can you do with it?”.

At the Large Hadron Collider, scientists from the University of Kansas achieved a fleeting form of modern-day alchemy — turning lead into gold for just a fraction of a second. Using ultra-peripheral ...

In June 2023, Yum Brands chief executive officer David Gibbs said the company’s Collider Lab, a consulting firm that provides “culture-based consumer insights,” has been a “proven game changer.” ...
