CERN Accelerating science

On 27 June, the CIPEA Innovation Day welcomed 15 innovative project proposals reflecting the CERN community’s commitment to tackling environmental challenges

It was just a few short weeks in mid-2012, but they were so intense that it felt like years. As 4 July drew near, the ATLAS and CMS experiments could sense that they were homing in on something big.

On 10 September 2008, the LHC circulated its first beams. It may not have been all plain sailing from then on, but the adventure had begun.

French graphic novelist Benjamin Reiss took advantage of a stay in the Pays de Gex to visit the ISOLDE facility and soak up the world of science

The VELO (Vertex Locator), the most recent addition to LHCb, was successfully installed a few weeks before the start of Run 3

A round of applause broke out in the CERN Control Centre on 5 July at 4.47 p.m. CEST when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detectors started recording high-energy collisions at the unprecedented energy of 13.6 TeV

The collaboration has observed a new kind of “pentaquark” and the first-ever pair of “tetraquarks”

How can we support members of our Laboratory in addressing conflict early on, before it reaches the Ombud’s Office?

The collaborations have used the largest samples of proton–proton collision data recorded so far by the experiments to study the unique particle in unprecedented detail
