CERN Plans Next-Generation Particle Collider to Explore Dark Universe

The Future Circular Collider, three times the size of the Large Hadron Collider, aims to delve deeper into particle physics and explore dark matter.

A feasibility study for the Future Circular Collider (FCC) at CERN shows no technical or scientific barriers to its construction.
The FCC, with a 91-kilometer circumference, could begin construction as early as 2033, with experiments starting in the 2040s.
Critics argue the FCC's $17-billion price tag may not justify the potential scientific gains, highlighting environmental concerns and the need for new theoretical guidance.
The FCC aims to produce and study around one million Higgs bosons, offering a chance to find cracks in the standard model of particle physics.
Other countries and organizations are considering alternative collider designs, including muon colliders and linear colliders, for future research.
