The Latest Breaking News from CERN

Scientists share 70-year, multi-billion dollar plan to build tunnel under the Swiss Alps

The massive project will see the construction of an underground ‘mega collider’

The Independent UK

Why do scientists want to spend billions on a 70-year project in an enormous tunnel under the Swiss Alps?

The Large Hadron Collider has been responsible for astounding advances in physics: the discovery of the elusive, long-sought Higgs boson as well as other new exotic particles, possible hints of new forces of nature, and more.

The Large Hadron Collider gets reset and refreshed each year – a CERN physicist explains how the team uses subatomic splashes to restart the experiments

When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics experiments like the Large Hadron Collider at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, don’t work that way. Instead, engineers and physicists need to take a few weeks every year…
