Deep inside CERN’s vast particle accelerator, engineers face a difficult task: inspecting narrow vacuum pipes that operate ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its associated experiments undergo an annual, multi-week reset and calibration procedure following a winter hibernation period, essential for accurate data ...

The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle collisions at the LHC. This new approach can reconstruct collisions more quickly ...

Bots hunt deformed RF contacts inside the collider's 27 km vacuum tubes The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) and CERN have jointly developed a "mouse-sized robot" to inspect parts of the Large ...

When two high-energy protons from the counter-circulating beams of the LHC collide, the entropy of the interacting quarks and gluons is virtually identical to the entropy of the hadrons that ...

CERN engineers have transported two gleaming cryogenic “cold boxes” deep into the tunnels of ...

The big picture: The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) hosts one of the most ambitious engineering and scientific endeavors ever undertaken by humans. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) ...

In the time it takes you to read this sentence, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will have smashed billions of particles ...

As upgrades enable the LHC to produce more and more particle collisions, physicists are using machine learning to keep up with the growing task of sorting through everything. In 2010, Mike Williams ...

This video looks at how Big Data is handled from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC produces millions of collisions every second in each detector, generating approximately one petabyte of data ...

CERN engineers have developed a fleet of small, AI-powered robots designed to race through the pipe networks of the Large Hadron Collider, and the project’s nickname tells you almost everything you ...
