; Major Experiments
: '''CERN (LHC)''' → Discovery of the Higgs, searching for Supersymmetry.
: '''Fermilab''' → Tevatron (discovered Top Quark), Neutrino experiments (DUNE).
: '''IceCube''' → Detection of high-energy cosmic neutrinos in Antarctic ice.
: '''Super-Kamiokande''' → Neutrino oscillations (proving they have mass).
