The Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel’s recommendations will set the course for the future of particle physics in the United States.

When the Large Hadron Collider restarts, it will be an even more powerful dark-matter-hunting machine.

The Planck mission released a first glimpse of data that, later this year, will test BICEP2’s discovery of gravitational waves.

About 550 visitors from all over the Bay Area came to explore a wide range of the institute’s cosmic research topics.

In a few years, scientists will come out with a new map of a third of the sky, one that will go deeper and bring that depth into sharper focus than any survey has yet achieved.

An engineer at SLAC laboratory constructed a full-scale model of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope's cryostat in his spare time.

The recent BICEP2 discovery of evidence for cosmic inflation might point to new physics.

SLAC's Siegfried Glenzer has been selected to receive an Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award, presented by the U.S. Secretary of Energy to honor scientists across a range of fields.

Five years ago, the brightest source of X-rays on the planet lit up at SLAC. The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray laser's scientific and technical progress since its momentous "first light" have been no less luminous, say those who...

Scientists from the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology are helping build cameras for the Cherenkov Telescope Array, an advanced, ground-based gamma-ray observatory.

Scientists say collisions between dark matter particles might be the cause of a curious excess of gamma-ray light coming from the center of our ga

The Cosmic Microwave Background, leftover light from the big bang, carries a wealth of information about the universe—for those who can read it.
