The largest combined study of Higgs boson production and decay to date using data from the CMS experiment finds no significant deviations from theory ...

Physicists on the CMS experiment announce the most elaborate mass measurement of a particle that has captivated the physics community for decades. Following up on an unexpected measurement by the ...

The CMS experiment at CERN is the latest to weigh in on the mass of the W boson—an elementary particle that, along with the Z boson, mediates the weak force, which is responsible for a form of ...

Geneva, 4 July 2012. At a seminar held at CERN1 today as a curtain raiser to the year’s major particle physics conference, ICHEP2012 in Melbourne, the ATLAS and CMS experiments presented their latest ...

Physicists, including core UCLA researchers, have accurately measured the mass of the W boson — more precisely than a previous attempt at measuring the mass — and found that it is consistent with the ...

Below you will find comments and quotes on the latest results of the Higgs boson search from the two lead Caltech physicists involved in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, Dr. Maria Spiropulu ...

The Higgs boson, discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, plays a central role in the Standard Model of particle physics, endowing elementary particles such as quarks with mass through ...

Higgs decays have exposed quantum connections between massive particles that vanish almost as soon as they are created.

Explore the latest insights on the Higgs boson discovery from LHC experiments and comparisons with Tevatron results. But in the first graph here all we see is a smooth spectrum, agreeing exceedingly ...

The Compact Muon Solenoid detector is located 100 meters underground on the Franco-Swiss borderer at CERN and collects data from the Large Hadron Collider. The detector has been operational since 2010 ...
