First beam for Large Hadron Collider, world's mightiest particle accelerator
An international collaboration of scientists today sent the first beam of protons zooming at nearly the speed of light around the 17-mile-long underground circular path of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator, located at the CERN laboratory near Geneva,... view more (2008-09-11)

The Tiny Difference that Created the Universe
Roughly 15 billion years ago, during the Big Bang, equal amounts of matter and anti-matter should have been created, with an anti-particle for every particle created. Yet when matter and anti-matter meet, they both disappear in a flash of light, so why didn't they annihilate each other completely?... view more (2002-05-07)

UK Companies encouraged to "Go for the Grid"
UK companies are this week (5th and 6th September) given encouragement to build long term relations with CERN (the European Laboratory for Particle Physics) with a view to winning contracts, especially related to the GRID.
