CERN’s dedicated heavy-ion physics experiment, ALICE, is upgrading its Inner Tracking System and adding a forward calorimeter for the next phase of the LHC upgrade
How an evacuation of the CMS experimental cavern has provided invaluable human behaviour data to improve emergency preparedness for complex underground facilities
Almost the whole accelerator complex is now in “physics mode”, routinely delivering the various types of beam to the different physics facilities and experiments. Notably, the intensity ramp-up in the LHC is progressing remarkably well
