Last week’s coverage opened with one report from RAI 3 on the present and future of particle accelerators and the ongoing upgrade work following the LHC shutdown. Similarly, an article from TakeToNews was also published, delving into the Future Circular Collider and the challenges surrounding it.
Media also covered several recent scientific results from CERN experiments. SciTechDaily reported on new ALICE measurements providing evidence that gluons inside atomic nuclei may behave collectively at very small scales, supporting the possibility of gluon saturation. Quantum Zeitgeist highlighted CMS searches involving the Higgs boson and high-energy processes, while Energy Innovation Review covered new neutron data from n_TOF and their implications for nuclear astrophysics and reactor safety.
Additional coverage included a piece by Research Professional News on the future of the LHCb upgrade, highlighting continued uncertainty around its funding following the UK's decision to withdraw financial support for the project.
