Physicists found no tiny black holes at the LHC, but they just made the hiding place for new physics considerably smaller.

GENEVA (AP) — Top minds at the world’s largest atom smasher have released a blueprint for a much bigger successor that could vastly improve research into the remaining enigmas of physics. The plans ...

Using the Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle accelerator, scientists are on the hunt for quantum black holes smaller than atoms.

The Cool Copper Collider is a new proposal for a Higgs-producing linear collider that would be more compact than other collider designs. A prototype version of the Cool Copper Collider. The photo ...

Ever since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, physicists have wanted to build new particle colliders to better understand the properties of that elusive particle and probe elementary particle ...
