ATLAS Highlights from Quark Matter 2025 Top HIghlight True Katarina Anthony Mon, 14/04/2025 - 11:34 Highlight False News ATLAS Collaboration heavy ion physics results Members of the ATLAS Heavy Ion team at the Quark Matter 2025 conference. (Image: A. Dimri/ATLAS Collaboration) Last week, the ATLAS Collaboration presented new results at the Quark Matter 2025 conference, held in Frankfurt am Main (Germany). The conference gathered more than a thousand physicists from around the world to share the latest developments in high-energy heavy-ion physics. This year’s edition featured a wealth of new experimental results from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments as well as new theoretical work. ATLAS physicists showcased a wide range of new measurements based on heavy-ion data from LHC Run 2 (2015–2018) and Run 3 (2022–ongoing). From detailed studies of the quark-gluon […]

ATLAS prepares for High-Luminosity LHC Top HIghlight False Katarina Anthony Wed, 02/04/2025 - 12:52 Highlight False News Andreas Hoecker HL-LHC In 2025, the global particle physics community turns its attention to Europe as it embarks on the third update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics. This follows the initial strategy process launched under the CERN Council in 2005–2006, and subsequent updates in 2012–2013 and 2018–2020. While discussions will focus on future projects, such as the next-generation high-energy collider, it is equally essential to reaffirm the critical importance of the upgrades of the LHC and its experiments for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), approved to operate from 2030 to 2041. The HL-LHC is a large-scale effort to probe the structure of matter and its interactions more deeply than ever before. It is the highest mid-term priority for […]

Every Spring, all eyes turn to La Thuile (Italy) for the arrival of the annual Recontres de Moriond conferences. Starting on 23 March with the Electroweak Interactions & Unified Theories conference, followed by the QCD and High Energy Interactions conference on 30 March, these meetings bring together theorists and experimentalists from around the world to share their latest findings. Results from the ATLAS Collaboration will be at the forefront, with ATLAS physicists presenting high-precision measurements of the W boson and top quark, novel searches for exotic […]

Steering ATLAS forward with new management Top HIghlight False Katarina Anthony Mon, 10/03/2025 - 10:08 Highlight False News Katarina Anthony ATLAS collaboration The ATLAS Collaboration embarks on a new chapter under the leadership of Spokesperson Stéphane Willocq (University of Massachusetts Amherst). New ATLAS Spokesperson Stéphane Willocq (University of Massachusetts Amherst) (Image: M. Brice/CERN) Taking the helm in March 2025, Stéphane succeeds Andreas Hoecker, under whom he previously served as Deputy Spokesperson. A long-standing ATLAS member since 2004, he brings extensive leadership experience, having also served as ATLAS Physics Coordinator (2020–2021) and Chair of the Publications Committee (2017–2018). Elected for a two-year term, Stéphane will steer ATLAS through the final phase of LHC Run 3 and navigate the transition into the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) […]
