The proposed 91-kilometer collider could be up and running by the 2040s, but it won't perform high-energy physics until 2070.

CERN (The European Organization for Nuclear Research ... Just like the LHC, the FCC would accelerate subatomic particles to almost the speed of light in its underground ring, before smashing the ...

Europe's CERN laboratory said on Monday that a detailed analysis revealed no technical obstacles to building the world's biggest particle collider, even as critics took issue with the "pharaonic" ...

Particle physics may not be trending on TikTok, but make no mistake—it’s quietly hosting the biggest show in science. At the heart of ...

Bigger and better: the feasibility study involved examining some 100 different scenarios for the collider before landing on a ring circumference of 90.7 km. (Courtesy: CERN) The CERN particle-physics ...

Originally, CERN physicists became interested in developing this technology for use in compact particle accelerators, for example in a new storage ring for the CERN-based experiment ISOLDE.

The plans for the Future Circular Collider — a nearly 91-kilometer (56.5-mile) loop along the French-Swiss border and below Lake Geneva — published late Monday put the finishing details on a project ...

The massive machines beam subatomic particles at high speed around giant underground rings, crashing them into each other to see what happens. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN ...
