Join me as I explore CERN, home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), located 100m beneath Geneva, Switzerland. The LHC ...

One of the big questions in science is not just "why are we here?' It's, "why is anything here?" Scientists at CERN have been looking into this one over the last ...

Writer Chetna Krishna follows CERN’s “coolest” transport, a test of a system to ship stored antimatter across the continent. I reach CERN’s Antimatter Factory at 8 a.m. sharp. I’m here at the ...

In 1971, astronaut David Scott stood on the lunar surface, holding a hammer and a feather, and in the vacuum of the moon, he ...

Strange matter Illustration of how antihyperhelium-4 – a bound state of two antiprotons, an antineutron and an antilambda – is created in lead–lead collisions at CERN. (Courtesy: CERN/ J Ditzel with ...

Researchers at CERN have gotten comfortable with antimatter -- so comfortable, in fact, they're planning to load a billion antimatter particles into a van for a quick field trip. Share on Facebook ...

The LHCb experiment at CERN has revealed a fundamental asymmetry in the behavior of particles called baryons. “The reason why it took longer to observe CP violation in baryons than in mesons is down ...

One pound of antimatter contains 40,766 terajoules of energy. A pound of antimatter, when containment fails, would interact with a pound of matter (which, of course, also contains 40.766 Tj of energy) ...

Yeah! Science! Scientists at the CERN Large Hadron Collider – the most powerful particle accelerator ever built – have detected the heaviest form of antimatter observed. This discovery is as important ...

DHL is waiting at my door with 2 anti-protons... Joke a-side I did not even dream that we would be able to load anti-matter on trucks in my life. Click to expand... I figured it's possible, but that ...
