Linac 4 has taken over from the retired Linac 2 as the first accelerator in the LHC injection chain

It’s the end of Long Shutdown 2 for the PS Booster, the first accelerator to be recommissioned, alongside Linac 4

During a two-month test run that started at the end of September, Linac4 will send negative hydrogen ions up to the door of the PS Booster

After two decades of design and construction, CERN’s newest accelerator, Linac4, is on its way to join the LHC injection chain

New septum magnets will send the beam to the four rings of the PS Booster after the Long Shutdown 2

Ten years after it was approved, CERN’s new accelerator is officially inaugurated

At a ceremony today, CERN inaugurated its linear accelerator, Linac 4, the newest accelerator acquisition since the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)

After having accelerated a beam up to the design energy of 160 MeV, Linac 4 is now entering a new phase of its commissioning

The LHC’s success is not alone. Linac 4 and ELENA have also reached important milestones
