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 ...

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 ...

If approved, the project would be in two separate phases. An electron-positron collider would start smashing lighter particles together in 2046, aiming to further explore the physics of the Higgs ...

The first, an electron-positron collider, "would provide unprecedented precision measurements" of particles. The second phase, a proton-proton collider, would enable those collisions up to eight ...

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

The second stage of FCC, which would reuse the 91km tunnel as well as some existing LHC infrastructure, is currently ...

Beneath the mountains at the Swiss-French border, as deep as 175 metres below ground, lies the Large Hadron Collider – the ... collider called the Circular Electron Positron Collider.

The proposed Future Circular Collider could answer questions about the nature of the universe – and have practical benefits ...
