Key4hep: A software framework for future collider studies
Key4hep brings future-collider communities together around a shared software framework for detector design and physics studies. By integrating tools for event generation, simulation, reconstruction and analysis, it reduces duplication, facilitates comparisons and allows each project to adapt the software to its own detector and scientific goals.

Designing for the unusual: LLP2026 and the lifetime frontier
LLP2026 brought around 80 theorists and experimentalists to Cambridge at a moment of transition for the lifetime frontier. From new searches using Run 3 LHC data and unconventional signatures to prototype detectors and new experimental concepts, the workshop showed how long-recognised blind spots are being turned into concrete experimental capabilities.

New ATLAS and CMS searches narrow the gap for compressed higgsinos
New ATLAS and CMS searches narrow the gap for compressed higgsinos Supersymmetry plays a prominent role in the landscape of models that push beyond the Standard Model. Higgsinos, the supersymmetric partners of the Higgs boson, may help in addressing a number of unsolved puzzles, particularly if their masses are near the electroweak scale. Not only

In discussion with John Ellis: The Higgs, Patience and Perseverance in Science
In discussion with John Ellis: The Higgs, Patience and Perseverance in Science by Panos Charitos For John Ellis, the history of the Higgs boson is not a neat, short story that begins with a theory paper and ends with a discovery announcement. It is a long intellectual adventure, beginning in superconductivity, moving through the construction

AI for Gravitational Waves: Building Bridges Between Scientific Communities
AI for Gravitational Waves: Building Bridges Between Scientific Communities As gravitational-wave observatories enter a new phase of sensitivity, scale and scientific ambition, the challenge is no longer only to detect faint ripples in spacetime. It is also to analyse, interpret and respond to them fast enough to open new windows on the Universe. This was

Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors
Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors The challenge: smarter chips in harsher places Particle physics detectors have always pushed electronics to their limits. The next generation of tracking systems and calorimeters will depend critically on dense, intelligent, low power and radiation-hard microelectronics: front-end ASICs that can survive for decades in harsh environments, having their
