CERN Accelerating science

This summer, become a CERN ambassador on the Organization’s activity stand at Science Night, and help host the 11th edition of the CineGlobe international film festival

Donations to “Light their Spark”, the regular giving programme of the CERN & Society Foundation, will fuel opportunities for students, teachers and scientists across the world

Screenings of the film Particle Fever in local cinemas and theatres will be followed by discussions with scientists about the present and future of research at CERN

As the various breakthroughs of the 1970s gradually consolidated the Standard Model, the Brout–Englert–Higgs field and its boson emerged as the most promising theoretical model to explain the origin of mass

The observation provides direct experimental access to the mass of an elementary particle known as the charm quark

The resultant particles quickly spread around the globe, potentially influencing Earth’s climate on an intercontinental scale

The collaboration has put the seesaw model of neutrino mass to a new test
