CERN Accelerating science

The subdetector aligned more closely with the LHC beam than ever before, marking an important milestone in LHCb data taking

An LHC quadrupole whose beam screen had been coated with a fine layer of carbon displayed minimal heat load in comparison to other magnets, constituting a promising step in eliminating electron clouds in future particle accelerators

In February this year, an ambitious refurbishment of the Restaurant 1 kitchens was begun. The final phase of the work will take place between November 2022 and March 2023, and measures are being taken to ensure minimum disruption.

The construction of the last surface buildings for HL-LHC Point 1, including the underground connections to the HL-LHC cavern, is now complete
