Large Hadron Collider

If the LHC discovers the Higgs boson or other theoretical particles, their existence could help explain inflation, one of the universe's great mysteries

Meet Alexander Mott, 24, one of the up-and-coming physicists attending this year's Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting

Physicists are rewriting computer code so that detectors can cope with and triage data from the hundreds of millions of collisions that occur every second

It's just the second new particle to be discovered at the atom smasher where physicists also seek the elusive Higgs boson particle

Physicists explore the concept that cold states of matter can form repeated patterns in time

The latest analyses from the Large Hadron Collider boost the case for the particle's existence, but there's no new data

An experiment going up outside of Chicago will attempt to measure the intimate connections among information, matter and spacetime. If it works, it could rewrite the rules for 21st-century physics

A look ahead also points to what might be the first commercial firm to fly an unmanned cargo craft to the International Space Station and the first useful artificial genome

Tsunami-damaged nuclear reactors, Twitter-fueled political uprisings, a possible violation of Einsteinian physics--these and other highlights defined this year in science and technology

The long-sought Higgs boson is tied to the leading theory of how quarks, electrons and other particles get their mass
