Officials at Brookhaven National Laboratory pushed the button on the final smash up in its $2 billion Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider in Upton Friday, marking a quarter century of ground-breaking ...

I peeked in on the house-sized particle detector known as STAR just after it took its last-ever snapshot of one of the most extreme types of fireball ever created. Inside, the conditions just after ...

When the universe first burst into being, all of space was a cosmic cauldron filled with a roiling, fiery liquid of fundamental particles heated to trillions of degrees. But this seething primordial ...

TAIPEI/TOKYO -- It looks something like heavy-duty plastic wrap and is buried so deep in the guts of an iPhone that most users don't even know it exists. But short supplies of high-end glass cloth ...

Nikkei Asia reports that Apple has been scrambling to solve a glass cloth shortage, with the supply crunch projected to last until at least the second half of 2027. Here’s what that means. According ...

Planned to be the largest particle accelerator in the world, China's Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) was meant to be about 100 kilometers or 62 miles long. That's much bigger than CERN's ...

The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom smasher’s eventual final retirement is also something that top scientists are now ...

In collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, hotter than the Sun’s core by a staggering margin, scientists have finally solved a long-standing mystery: how delicate particles like deuterons and ...

The Collider Staff is a diverse collection of talented writers who bring a wealth of experience, thoughtfulness, and knowledge to their analysis of entertainment. Whether you want a searing hot take ...

In the hunt for new physics beyond the Standard Model, scientists are now looking closely at an unusual class of particle interactions called neutral triple gauge couplings (nTGCs). These interactions ...

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 ...

As the vibrantly patterned kente travels out of Africa, a new designation aims to protect its ties to Ghana, where the cloth originated. By Yola Mzizi Perhaps you’ve seen the kente cloth worn as a ...
