CERN Accelerating science

Estonia becomes the first Baltic country to join CERN as a full Member State

Global healthcare issues – from prosthesis pain to severe burns – were targeted by four student teams in the I.FAST project’s third challenge-based initiative

The AMS detector on board the International Space Station has found more cosmic rays made of deuterons than expected

The Smart Technologies to Extend Lives with Linear Accelerators (STELLA) project aims to turn technology developed for particle physics into a novel radiotherapy system suited to the challenging environments of low- and middle-income countries

Tim Berners-Lee wrote a proposal in 1989 for an information management system called the World Wide Web

Using collisions between lead nuclei at the LHC, the ALICE collaboration has measured an interference pattern akin to that of the famous double-slit experiment

CERN’s kaon factory pushes the energy frontier to probe uncharted territories of many beyond-the-Standard-Model theories

The experiment’s preliminary results explore the production cross section of the antiproton, which may provide physicists with clues in the search for dark matter

The experiment has developed a new device for cooling antiprotons more efficiently and for considerably increasing the precision of measurements of their fundamental properties

Herwig Schopper was Director-General of CERN from 1981 to 1988, during which time the Large Electron Positron collider was approved and constructed

The ATLAS collaboration has released its first results from searches for new physics phenomena conducted with data from Run 3 of the LHC

Retrieving and preserving access to data from experiments that ran in the 90s is a complex task carried out by passionate experts in the IT department
