Physicists at CERN have discovered that antimatter falls down. Sure, it sounds like an obvious thing, but scientists haven’t yet been able to confirm that it responds to gravity in exactly the same ...
Physics tells us that a hammer and a feather, dropped in a vacuum, will fall at the same rate – as famously demonstrated by an Apollo 15 astronaut on the Moon. Now, CERN scientists are preparing to ...
Significant recent advancements spearheaded with support from CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, are revealing deeper insights into the fundamental nature of our universe. The ...
What happens when you take a bit of antimatter and drop it? That’s the question being probed in a new series of antimatter gravity experiments being conducted by the European Organization for Nuclear ...

CERN scientists detect rare particle decay seen just once in 10 billion events
Researchers at CERN have just upgraded their understanding on one of the rarest particle ...
A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...
Just after the Tevatron collider at Fermilab in Illinois released its results, the Large Hadron Collider’s (LHC) ATLAS and CMS experiment teams presented their latest preliminary results in the search ...
NA62 experiment at CERN reports first evidence for ultra-rare process that could lead to new physics
Scientists at CERN have reported on their first significant evidence for a process predicted by theory, paving the way for searches for evidence of new physics in particle processes that could explain ...
In recent months, Ireland became an associate member of Cern, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research. This is a very welcome development for physicists, engineers and computer scientists ...
