LHCb brings leptons into line
Simultaneous measurements of rare B-meson decays using the full LHC Run 1 and 2 data samples agree with the predictions of the Standard Model, superseding previous results that had indicated intriguing departures from the 50-year old theory
ATLAS moves into top gear for Run 3
In their first Run 3 results, the ATLAS collaboration measured two Standard Model processes: the production of Z bosons and top-quark pairs
ALICE estimates how transparent the Milky Way is to antimatter
The finding will help space- and balloon-based searches for antimatter that may have originated from dark matter
CAST-CAPP inches closer to axion dark matter
The CAPP axion haloscope at the CAST experiment has hunted for axions from the Milky Way’s “halo” of dark matter, and has narrowed down the theoretical space in which to look for these hypothetical particles
ATLAS measures Higgs boson’s decay width
The decay width is linked to the particle’s lifetime and if found to deviate from its predicted value could indicate the presence of new physics
First Run 3 physics result by CMS
CMS measured the top-quark pair production cross section
ALICE explores the hidden charm of quark–gluon plasma
The ALICE collaboration shows that different bound states of a charm quark and its antimatter counterpart are differently modified by quark–gluon plasma, opening new avenues for studying this special state of matter and its effects
ALICE pins down hypermatter properties
The collaboration’s latest study of a “strange”, unstable nucleus known as the hypertriton offers new insight into the particle interactions that may take place at the hearts of neutron stars
ATLAS measures joint polarisation of carriers of the weak force
Joint-polarisation measurements of the W and Z bosons provide new opportunities to look for physics beyond the Standard Model
CMS measures rare particle decay with high precision
Using LHC Run 2 data, CMS has precisely measured the rare decay of strange B-mesons to muon-antimuon pairs. While its properties agree with Standard Model predictions, it may provide clues to new discoveries in Run 3
