Using a sample of a billion pp collisions, ALICE has measured the decay of Ω (2012) baryons to Ξ–K0S pairs. After traveling a ...

In a paper published in Physical Review C, the ALICE collaboration reports measurements that quantify the transmutation of ...

When two lead nuclei race through the LHC at nearly the speed of light, they sometimes just miss each other. Instead of ...

Instead of using the Large Hadron Collider to smash atoms together, researchers briefly turned lead into gold by facilitating ...

Of course, nothing came of these investigations (other than the foundations of modern chemistry), but it turns out all Boyle, ...

CERN scientists have turned lead into gold during high-speed collisions, echoing the age-old quest of alchemy.

Scientists at CERN use near-miss photon–nucleus collisions to create fleeting gold atoms, shedding light on rare nuclear ...

The dream of every medieval alchemist – turning lead into gold – has finally come true thanks to some impractical physics at CERN's Large Hadron Collider.

For centuries, the transformation of lead into gold was the ultimate goal for alchemists, a dream fueled by the similar ...

Scientists at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva Switzerland have successfully realized the medieval dream of ...

CERN's ALICE experiment turned lead into gold—briefly—reviving alchemists' old dreams with modern nuclear physics.
