First -of-its-kind experiment conducted at the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, found no sign of Lorentz symmetry breaking.

Researchers wanted to know if the universe's heaviest elementary particle, the top quark, always obeys Einstein 's 1905 theory of special relativity.

Some theories suggest that, at extremely high energies, special relativity fails.

The LHC's third and more powerful operating run began in 2022 and will conclude next year .
