  • World’s largest digital camera one step closer to reality

    Updated: 2012-04-24 16:08:57
    Perched high atop Cerro Pachón in the Chilean Andes, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope will take the largest, fastest, most detailed pictures of the Southern Hemisphere’s night sky. With these images, researchers around the world will seek to reveal the nature of dark matter and dark energy—and to answer a host of other questions in [...]

  • Fermi uses gamma rays to unearth clues about “empty” space

    Updated: 2012-04-20 01:10:12
    The team working on the Large Area Telescope has discovered that most gamma rays detected by LAT cannot be attributed to individual point sources.

  • Two proposed linear collider programs to be joined under new governance

    Updated: 2012-04-11 14:00:48
    The world’s two most mature proposals for a collider complementary to the Large Hadron Collider are joining collaborative forces. The two proposed electron-positron collider projects, the Compact Linear Collider Study and the International Linear Collider, have traditionally been viewed as casual rivals–both in the running to be built as the future complement to CERN’s proton-smashing [...]

  • Tevatron experiment confirms LHC discovery of Chi-b (P3) particle

    Updated: 2012-04-09 17:10:38
    The DZero experiment at Fermilab’s Tevatron collider has confirmed the discovery of a new particle from an experiment at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. In December, scientists on the ATLAS experiment at the LHC announced that they had unearthed in their data a never-before-seen particle composed of two bottom quarks, called Chi-b (P3). The DZero collaboration [...]

  • LHC physics data taking gets underway at new record collision energy of 8 TeV

    Updated: 2012-04-05 09:29:31
    At just after midnight in Geneva, operators brought stable beams of protons into collisions at the record-breaking energy of 8 TeV — 4 TeV per beam — for the first time. This marked the beginning of the LHC experiments’ data-taking for physics for 2012. “The experience of two good years of running at 3.5 TeV [...]

  • Physicists mobilize to rescue U.S. neutrino experiment

    Updated: 2012-04-04 21:00:36
    Neutrino physicists in the U.S. have begun to regroup after a disappointing setback last week, when they learned the Department of Energy would not support the budget of a major proposed experiment. The silver lining, as they see it, is that they have the chance to reevaluate their plans and find a path forward. DOE [...]

  • Korean experiment confirms groundbreaking neutrino measurement

    Updated: 2012-04-04 18:33:24
    Hot on the heels of the Daya Bay experiment's completion of one of the most difficult measurements in neutrino physics, a Korean experiment has produced its own measurement confirming the earlier results.
