Higgs predicted the existence of a new particle - the so-called Higgs boson - in 1964. But it would be almost 50 years before the particle'...

In particular, physicists are analysing the way it decays or transforms into other particles, to check the Standard Model's predictions.

Archana Sharma, a senior scientist at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland, who was involved in the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, said that CE...

The experiment was repeated last year and this year, after a two-and-a-half year shut-down of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, said...

Jobin was moved by the breadth and beauty of particle physics, and also witnessed the discovery and announcement of the Higgs boson.

The facility, designed to smash subatomic particles together at enormous speed, will reportedly be at least twice the size of CERN.

The ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at CERN have presented combined measurements of many of the particle's properties for the first time.

The restart of the LHC is now under way, with protons making their way around its 27-kilometre tunnel for the first time since 2013.

CERN expects to take till the end of May to reach collisions at the highest energy levels at 13 TEV--the highest ever for the LHC.

In 2012, inside the LHC under the Alps Mountains, physicists raised the temperature to 5.5 trillion degrees centigrade by smashing together...

It will get several opportunities in a large number of related technologies initiated and applied at the Switzerland-based organisation.

According to Hawking, 72, at very high energy levels the Higgs boson, which gives shape and size to everything that exists, could become un...

The particle, which was first proposed in the 1960s, finally appeared at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN near Geneva, in 2012.

The free seven-week course, titled 'The Discovery of the Higgs boson', is being run by the University of Edinburgh in UK.

"We can't say yet that we discovered the 'God Particle'. We have discovered a new particle; we are sure about that," says Rolf-Dieter Heuer.

An Indian and an Italian have been honoured by the adoption of their surnames by families of particles.

However, modern seers have to show evidence to back their claims, particularly when they tend to wear white laboratory coats rather than ve...
