A quantum leap for antimatter measurements In a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton – the antimatter counterpart of a proton – oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for almost a minute while trapped. The achievement, reported in a paper published today in the journal Nature, marks the first demonstration of an antimatter quantum […]

Computer Security: Spam protection for phone calls Unsolicited marketing and, even worse, fraudulent calls are unfortunately very common nowadays. Although total protection is impossible, the CERN Telephony Service has implemented several mechanisms to reduce such annoying calls to all CERN telephone numbers, whether landline or mobile. Remember that the mantra “Stop – Think – Don’t

Accelerator Report: Focus on luminosity production In my last Report, I announced the completion of the first proton physics run of the 2025 LHC schedule and the start of a series of special runs. These included the oxygen and neon ion runs, as well as Van de Meer (VdM) scans to calibrate the luminosity monitors

Le programme Vigie-Ciel a été distingué par le Prix de la recherche participative 2025 décerné par l’INRAE et le ministère de l’Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche, dans la catégorie « Recueil citoyen ». Cette reconnaissance consacre dix années de collaboration fructueuse entre scientifiques, médiateurs, astronomes amateurs et citoyens, autour d’un objectif commun : mieux

In this post, we want to share a little bit about the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software, CiviCRM, that we use to store donation records and donor information. We hope this offers you confidence in how your personal data is handled and secured whenever you make a donation. At the Tor Project, transparency for a

A new series exploring the connection between data protection and performance. The digital advertising industry is in a period of meaningful data use transition. An ecosystem that has fostered third-party cookies, device IDs, cross-site tracking, and more is reorienting. Data privacy regulations are evolving and expanding. Consumers, quite reasonably, are concerned with who is sharing

A century of quantum mechanics Just 100 years ago, on 9 July 1925, Werner Heisenberg wrote a letter to his friend, colleague and fiercest critic, Wolfgang Pauli. A few weeks earlier, Heisenberg had returned from the North Sea outpost of Helgoland, where he had laid the foundations of modern quantum mechanics and changed our understanding of

Celebrating the outstanding achievements of the ATLAS collaboration Established in 2014, the Outstanding Achievement Awards honour outstanding contributions made to the collaboration outside the field of physics analysis. They have since become a highlight of the community calendar, offering a chance to celebrate the vital work that keeps ATLAS running. Starting this year, the awards

Computer Security: TN v3.0 Remember the good old days of the Technical Network (TN), when CERN (accelerator) control systems were easily accessible from the Campus network? Unfortunately, those control systems were (and still are today!) using devices of the “Internet of Damn Insecure Stupid Things”. External protections became necessary in 2005: enter TN v2.0. While
