It is hoped that the “Future Circular Collider” will be able to discover what makes up dark matter.

Set in Swiss woodland at the CERN site, the new centre is designed to be a bridge between science with the outside world.

From Star Trek to PET scans, antimatter has thrilled and worried humankind. Now, scientists have resolved a key mystery.

The world’s largest particle-physics lab normally runs up huge energy bills. This winter, it’s trying to cut its consumption.

Physicists exploring the universe’s biggest mysteries are now using their know-how to improve radiation therapy to treat cancer.

Scientists have begun a new round of experiments to explore the dark matter that makes up most of the universe.

Preliminary results from two experiments suggest something could be wrong with the basic way physicists think the universe works, raising the possibility of a newly discovered fundamental force.

Started in 1954, the 7,000 scientists at the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) are focused on the innovations and discoveries of the future.
