A team of scientists has devised a machine learning algorithm that calculates, with low computational time, how the ATLAS detector in the Large Hadron Collider would respond to the ten times more data ...

Operators of Jefferson Lab's primary particle accelerator are getting a new tool to help them quickly address issues that can prevent it from running smoothly. The machine learning system has passed ...

A new particle collider is set to be built at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Long Island, New York. Particle colliders smash charged particles against one another at nearly the speed of light ...

A new review in Nature chronicles the many ways machine learning is popping up in particle physics research. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider produce about a million gigabytes of data every ...

Scientists have developed a new machine-learning platform that makes the algorithms that control particle beams and lasers smarter than ever before. Their work could help lead to the development of ...

It’s a common comedy trope: the industrial production line that speeds up beyond the limits of the humans who must work on it. Particle physicists found themselves facing a potential Lucy-and-Ethel ...

The volume of data particle physicists have to sort through at the Large Hadron Collider is staggering, and it’s about to increase by an order of magnitude. To cope with this torrent of data, CERN is ...

Scientists running the Large Hadron Collider, aka the "big bang machine", announced Friday they've discovered a brand new particle during one of their experiments. The discovery's announcement first ...
