At nearly 56.5 miles across, the FCC would be more than three times the LHC’s size while including eight surface laboratory sites overseeing four ongoing experiments. The tunnel itself would be about ...

After several years of reflection and international collaboration, CERN has just completed a major study: can we build a new giant particle accelerator, even more ambitious than the LHC?

Scientists share 70-year, multi-billion dollar plan to build tunnel under the Swiss Alps - The massive project will see the ...

The proposed 91-kilometer collider could be up and running by the 2040s, but it won't perform high-energy physics until 2070.

The blueprint lays out the proposed path, environmental impact, scientific ambitions and project cost. Independent experts will take a look before CERN’s two dozen member countries — all European ...

(Courtesy: CERN) The CERN particle-physics lab near Geneva has released plans for the 15bn SwFr (£13bn) Future Circular Collider (FCC) – a huge 91 km circumference machine. The three-volume ...

The even larger project is the Future Circular Collider. The 56-mile-long (91-kilometer) project has not yet gotten the green light or (arguably more importantly) funding, and even if it does, the ...

CERN's analysis indicates no technical barriers to constructing the Future Circular Collider (FCC), a proposed 91-kilometer particle accelerator, which would be the world's largest.

Dubbed the 'world's biggest atom smasher', FCC could provide new physics discoveries that explain the structure and evolution of the universe. CERN (The European Organization for Nuclear ...

CERN's proposed $37 billion Future Circular Collider under the Alps aims to explore mysteries beyond the Higgs boson.

“This study is the result of an immense amount of work carried out by the international FCC collaboration,” said Fabiola Gianotti, CERN’s director general, in a presentation to reporters.
