CERN's Large Hadron Collider is one of the few scientific experiments to sparked wide-spread media coverage, particularly with the 2012 announcement of the discovery of the long-sought Higgs boson. So what really goes on at CERN and why the hubbub about the Large Hadron Collider, known as the LHC?

This year's Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded for results that shed light on mysterious fundamental particles called neutrinos.

What are the mysteries that still remain in particle physics?

It's amazing to think that our world is based on a handful of fundamental particles and forces. Find out how it all fits together.

Research into the bizarre world of neutrinos helps to piece together the creation story of the Universe.

The 2013 Nobel prize in physics goes to Peter Higgs and François Englert for proposing the mechanism that gives things mass.
