The chain of accelerators that prepare beams for the LHC also supplies myriad experiments

On 28 June for the first time in history, the LHC collided beams with 2556 bunches per ring

A look back over the topics covered at FCC week 2017, held in Berlin

The Large Hadron Collider has established a new record of luminosity, delivering a huge amount of data to its experiments

New magnets designed for the High-Luminosity LHC - the Large Hadron Collider upgrade project – are in the prototype phase

As the last step before the intensity ramping-up, the week 23 was dedicated for the scrubbing of the beam pipes

After declaring stable beams, now it’s the period of scrubbing and intensity ramp-up, until 2556 bunches per beam will circulate in the machine

The LHC has been accelerating more and more protons, and to allow the machine to reach its maximum intensity, it will undergo a thorough scrubbing.

The Horizon 2020 project “Accelerator Research and Innovation for European Science and Society” (ARIES) officially began on 1 May 2017
