Assessing the seismic safety of CERN’s installations
Surrounded by the Alps, the Jura and Lake Geneva, CERN is located in a particularly complex geological setting, which also happens to be a non-negligible earthquake-prone region. Compared to the rest of Europe, Switzerland has a moderate seismic risk, but the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) indicates that earthquake activity is not evenly distributed throughout the

CAST-CAPP inches closer to axion dark matter
The CAPP axion haloscope at the CAST experiment has hunted for axions from the Milky Way’s “halo” of dark matter, and has narrowed down the theoretical space in which to look for these hypothetical particles
