Since the Higgs boson’s discovery, physicists have been refining their understanding of its behavior. ATLAS has released 3 new studies of Higgs decays to W/Z boson pairs, probing its total width – a fundamental parameter – and searching for new physics. Learn more ⤵️ atlas.cern/Updates/Brie...

Researchers at the ATLAS Experiment are searching for a hidden “dark sector” - a realm of new particles and forces that interact very weakly with known matter. Two new results target distinctive signatures of dark-sector particles. atlas.cern/Updates/Brie...

🚀 And we're off! On 5 May 2025, the ATLAS Experiment recorded its first 13.6 TeV collisions of the year, kicking off the third of Run 3 at @cern.bsky.social's flagship accelerator. These event displays capture the first moments of a promising new data-taking season. Learn more: cern.ch/run3-2025
