At CERN, we probe the fundamental structure of particles that make up everything around us. We do so using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments.

Additional evidence of an unknown particle from a Hungarian lab gives a new impetus to NA64 searches
Work is in progress to modernise the fire protection system in the SPS
Two teams are treating the vacuum chambers of selected SPS magnets to limit the electron-cloud phenomenon, which can disrupt the beams
The NA64 collaboration has placed new limits on the interaction between a photon and its hypothetical dark-matter counterpart
The SPS radiofrequency acceleration system is being enhanced with a new technology: solid-state amplifiers
An important protection component for the High-Luminosity LHC has been successfully tested at the HiRadMat facility
After several years of preparatory work, the first crab cavity prototypes have been installed in the SPS tunnel and are ready for testing
Experiments resume at CERN’s second-largest accelerator, the Super Proton Synchrotron
Stefan Ulmer and Chloé Malbrunot are the newly elected chairs of the Antiproton Decelerator Users Community
Partially ionised xenon atoms have been accelerated in the SPS to test a new gamma-ray source concept
The Super Proton Synchrotron is the last accelerator that had to awaken before the restart of the Large Hadron Collider in 2017
