When two high-energy protons from the counter-circulating beams of the LHC collide, the entropy of the interacting quarks and gluons is virtually identical to the entropy of the hadrons that ...

Scientists analyzing data from heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—the world's most powerful particle collider, located at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research—have ...

Scientists have analyzed data gathered from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider to advance our understanding of why anything exists.… That existential statement is necessary because scientists think that the ...

As upgrades enable the LHC to produce more and more particle collisions, physicists are using machine learning to keep up with the growing task of sorting through everything. In 2010, Mike Williams ...

The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top quarks that suggests that these heaviest of all elementary particles form a ...

A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...

This video looks at how Big Data is handled from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC produces millions of collisions every second in each detector, generating approximately one petabyte of data ...

The beam dynamics of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) underpin its ability to push the frontiers of high-energy physics by maintaining intensely focused particle streams and ensuring their safe, stable ...

For centuries, scientists have been on a thrilling quest to understand the universe's building blocks. At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) smashes ...

One central aspect of such a machine learning approach would have to be avoiding confirmation bias feedback and hallucinations – they might end up detecting cats by the presence of things looking ...
