The shutdown, which began on June 29, marks the start of a planned four-year upgrade that will transform the collider into a much more powerful version.

Scientists have developed a new machine-learning platform that makes the algorithms that control particle beams and lasers smarter than ever before. Their work could help lead to the development of ...

Cern has switched off the Large Hadron Collider for a four-year shutdown and overhaul. The work will prepare the machine for ...

A new review in Nature chronicles the many ways machine learning is popping up in particle physics research. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider produce about a million gigabytes of data every ...

A team of scientists has devised a machine learning algorithm that calculates, with low computational time, how the ATLAS detector in the Large Hadron Collider would respond to the ten times more data ...

Operators of Jefferson Lab's primary particle accelerator are getting a new tool to help them quickly address issues that can prevent it from running smoothly. The machine learning system has passed ...

For years, physicists at CERN tracked a phantom disruption inside the Super Proton Synchrotron. Computer simulations pointed to a specific resonance structure that trapped particles on invisible ...

The volume of data particle physicists have to sort through at the Large Hadron Collider is staggering, and it’s about to increase by an order of magnitude. To cope with this torrent of data, CERN is ...

D-Wave system shows quantum computers can learn to detect particle signatures in mountains of data, but doesn’t outpace conventional methods — yet. A rudimentary quantum computer has rediscovered the ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland became famous around the world in 2012 with the detection of the Higgs boson. The observation marked a crucial confirmation of the Standard ...
