CERN's cryogenic systems cool over 1000 magnets on the LHC to temperatures close to absolute zero, where matter takes on some unusual properties Cryogenics is the branch of physics that deals with the ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is currently operating at the energy of 6.5 TeV per beam. At this energy, the trillions of particles circle the collider's 27-kilometre tunnel 11,245 times per second.

Nous sommes constitués de particules, et il en va de même pour tout ce qui nous entoure. Au commencement de l’Univers, les particules n’avaient pas de masse. Elles se déplaçaient à la vitesse de la ...
