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

The result represents an essential step towards using these molecules for fundamental physics research and beyond

New injection and acceleration equipment is being installed in the PS Booster, which is in the midst of a major overhaul

In the first of our series of articles on work done during LS2, we focus on the second link in the accelerator chain, the PS Booster

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

The first of the 28 radio-frequency cavities for the PS Booster’s new acceleration system is ready

The accelerator chain and the experiments that it serves are gradually awakening after the extended year-end technical stop (EYETS)

Linac 4 now reaching milestone energy of 50MeV to act as replacement for ageing Linac2, before taking over at head of accelerator chain in 2020

Today the ISOLDE installation restarted its physics programme with beams from the Proton Synchrotron Booster

With Linac2 up and running, the countdown to beam in the LHC has begun: next in line is the PS Booster
