Particles rush through a long tunnel in the Large Hadron Collider. Maximilien Brice/CERN, CC BY-SA When you push “start” on your microwave or computer, the device flips right on – but major physics ...

The old fantasy of transforming lead into gold is now a reality, made possible by some wildly inefficient physics at the ...

In effect, it’s lab-grown gold, but at billions of dollars for a few atoms, it’s unlikely to shake the gold market.
