’Breakthrough’ as fusion experiment generates excess energy for the first time
Scientists have hailed a 'true breakthrough' as a fusion reaction has successfully generated more energy than was used to create it. For over seventy years, scientists have been attempting to harness thermonuclear fusion - the power source of stars - to generate energy. This is a true breakthrough moment, which is tremendously exciting.

Ten years since the discovery of the Higgs boson
Ten years ago, on 4 July 2012, an international collaboration of particle physicists announced to the world that they had independently observed a new particle - the Higgs boson. The finding came out of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN; Oxford researchers were key contributors to the discovery and have continued to play a leading role in Higgs-boson research ever since.

Speech-friendly face mask could end frustration of muffled chat
A new face mask designed by Manchester researchers is promising to end the stress and anxiety talkers and listeners experience when they cover up. Designed by a team at The Universities of Manchester and Salford , and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Manchester Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) , the revolutionary design will protect wearers from viruses such as COVID-19.
