The LHC has been in luminosity production mode for a couple of weeks - the total integrated luminosity for the year has passed 14 inverse femtobarns

Linear accelerator 4 will deliver particles to the Proton-Synchrotron Booster at more than triple the energy the current linac achieves

A 10% decrease in the LHC's peak luminosity can be explained by changing bunch intensities. Jan Uythoven reports

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has delivered over twice as many collisions to the ATLAS and CMS experiments this year as it did in the whole of 2011

Good performance followed recovery from extended luminosity calibration runs

Discussions under way for possible re-use of LEIR accelerator

A mixed bag of operations and the development of special optics mean the LHC is on track for as much luminosity as possible before the long shutdown

LHC will run for a further seven weeks in a bid to maximize data for physics following the latest Higgs-search update

At a recent brainstorming meeting at CERN, over 200 scientists discussed the possibility of modifying LEIR to serve the biomedical community
