Welcome to the first Physics World Particle & Nuclear Briefing bringing you the best of our recent coverage in these two areas, including – of course – plenty on CERN, which is celebrating its 70th ...

Workshops around the world train science teachers to incorporate particle physics into their classrooms. Picture this: A stationary object such as a vase suddenly explodes, sending fragments flying.

Scientists in the particle physics community are bringing environmental and climate issues to the table in discussions about future research. Using a particle collider requires a lot of energy. For ...

Particle physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces that govern their interactions. The field has evolved from early studies of protons, neutrons and electrons ...

Our best models can't explain why the mass-giving Higgs boson is so small. Resurrecting a 40-year-old idea could put this riddle and two others to rest CERN's recently restarted Large Hadron Collider ...
