• A slide that captures the future(s) of particle physics

    Updated: 2010-07-30 18:33:19
    Of the estimated 10,000 slides shown at the International Conference on High Energy Physics, a few stand out as likely to stick around for a while. One may be the first slide ever that lists all possible future projects in high-energy physics around the world, along with their states of readiness.

  • From early particle accelerators to the LHC in 12 minutes

    Updated: 2010-07-28 23:00:10
    Check out a 12-minute public television program that traces the invention of the cyclotron in Berkeley in the 1930s, the development of SLAC's two-mile-long linear accelerator in the 60s, and how they relate to what's going on at the Large Hadron Collider.

  • Lighting up the dark universe

    Updated: 2010-07-28 19:43:27
    Exploring our dark universe is usually the domain of extreme physics. Clues to dark matter and energy are searched for by huge neutrino telescopes and particle detectors, deep underground, and by experiments launched into space. But an experiment doesn't have to be exotic to explore the unexplained. At the International Conference on High Energy Physics, which ends today in Paris, scientists from the GammeV-CHASE experiment unveiled the first results from their experiment, which used 30 hours' worth of data from a 10-meter-long experiment to place the world's best limits on particles of dark energy.

  • LHC results: Not just the same old thing

    Updated: 2010-07-26 17:30:52
    CERN's press release issued today states that the LHC's first measurements are allowing them to “rediscover” the Standard Model of particle physics. But the presentations at ICHEP tell a slightly different story.

  • New limits on Higgs mass announced

    Updated: 2010-07-26 15:19:58
    New constraints on the elusive Higgs particle are more stringent than ever before. Scientists of the CDF and DZero collider experiments at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermilab revealed their latest Higgs search results today (July 26) at the International Conference on High Energy Physics, held in Paris from July 22-28. Their results rule out a significant fraction of the allowed mass range established by earlier experiments.

  • Schedule for LHC’s next few years revealed

    Updated: 2010-07-26 10:37:40
    Steve Myers, CERN's Director for Accelerators and Technology, presented the LHC schedule for the next 10 years today in the first plenary presentation at the International Conference on High Energy Physics. Myers also presented his predictions for the amount of data that the LHC may collect over the same time period. These predictions over the next few years will be scrutinized closely by scientists at Fermilab's Tevatron, who are currently pushing to extend the accelerator's life for a further 3 years.

  • Higgs is the hot topic at ICHEP

    Updated: 2010-07-24 01:55:34
    Everyone's catching Higgs fever, even French President Nicolas Sarkozy. The elusive particle - and the race between the experiments at Fermilab's Tevatron and those at the Large Hadron Collider to discover it - have made headlines for years, but the frenzy reached new heights in the run-up to the International Conference on High Energy Physics.

  • Happy Higgs Hunting

    Updated: 2010-07-22 03:47:11
    Skip to content Asymptotia Proof Happy Higgs Hunting Published by Clifford on July 21, 2010 in research science science in the media and work In case you were wondering , things are moving steadily along in the search for the Higgs boson , and in the general ramping up to study entirely new frontiers of particle physics . I noticed a couple of interesting articles today that give you a nice sample . The first , by Dick Ahlstrom in the Irish Times , and is about the announced rediscovery” of the W and Z bosons at the Large Hadron Collider by a team working at the LHCb experiment . I personally think that the term rediscovery” is somewhat misleading since it makes it seem like the community forgot where they the key signatures of the unity of the electromagnetic and weak nuclear forces at

  • Particle physicists collide in Paris

    Updated: 2010-07-22 01:07:35
    Paris’ 17th arrondissement has become particle physics central. More than 1,000 physicists have descended on the Palais de Congrès conference center to attend the 35th International Conference on High Energy Physics, which kicks off today and continues through next Wednesday. ICHEP is the world’s premier particle physics conference, where scientists present and discuss the newest and most intriguing results from experiments in particle physics, particle astrophysics and cosmology, innovative theoretical approaches and predictions, and concepts for future accelerators and particle detectors.

  • ATLAS Reach For The Higgs Boson

    Updated: 2010-07-21 10:54:38
    The Atlas collaboration made public, just in time for the 2010 ICHEP conference in Paris, the projected reach of their searches for standard model Higgs bosons. This is a whole set of interesting new results which, although necessarily still based on simulations, tell us a lot about what we might see toward the end of next year at the LHC. Here I will just flash a couple of the results, because the plentiful online documentation that ATLAS provided makes it a worthless exercise on my part to just echo it here. However, maybe I can comment the most relevant plots for those of you too lazy to browse the information-thick ATLAS pages. read more
