Sustainable HEP brings together the high-energy physics community to explore the intersection of particle physics and sustainability, covering topics such as energy efficiency, material use, ...

André de Gouvêa explains why neutrino masses imply the existence of new fundamental fields. Misfits Massive neutrinos are not part of the Standard Model. Credit: Symmetry After all these years, ...

Vivian Poulin asks if the tension between a direct measurement of the Hubble constant and constraints from the early universe could be resolved by new physics. On large scales the dominant motion of ...

What is the fate of the universe? Why is there more matter than antimatter? What lurks beyond the Standard Model? Valentina Cairo and Steven Lowette explore the physics reach of the High-Luminosity ...

From targets to absorbers, beam-intercepting devices are vital to CERN’s accelerator complex. Marco Calviani describes the major upgrades taking place to prepare for the high-luminosity LHC, and the ...

Oliver James of DNEG, which produced the striking black hole in the film Interstellar, describes the science behind visual effects and the challenges in this fast-growing industry. Gargantua A variant ...

Rolf Widerøe operates one of his betatrons in 1953. Credit: Av Verdens Gang/NTB Scanpix The betatron is an early type of MeV-range electron accelerator which uses the electric field induced by a ...

CERN’s Molflow software has become the de-facto industry standard for ultra-high- vacuum simulations. Roberto Kersevan and Marton Ady describe how it is now enabling space research and other branches ...

An electron–positron collider to follow the LHC will produce copious Higgs bosons, yielding precise knowledge of this unique particle, explain Keith Ellis and Beate Heinemann. The novelty of the Higgs ...

From understanding the structure of the elementary blocks of matter and the forces acting between them, to exhaustively probing the existence of new phenomena at low and high energies, the Future ...

What a proton is depends on how you look at it, or rather on how hard you hit it. A century after Rutherford’s discovery, our picture of this ubiquitous particle is coming into focus, says Amanda ...

After a moment of turbulence, Norbert Holtkamp returns to Fermilab with a clear mandate: deliver DUNE, honour the laboratory’s legacy of bold leadership and reaffirm big science’s responsibility to ...
