CERN Accelerating science

Two and a quarter years after it was delivered to the LS2 intervention teams, the key to the LHC is back in the hands of the Operations group

The Proton Synchrotron accelerated its first beam on 4 March after a comprehensive two-year overhaul

The 2020 update of the European strategy for particle physics forms the basis of CERN’s objectives for the next five years, explains Fabiola Gianotti

The new Beam Gas Ionisation beam profile monitor, installed in the Proton Synchrotron (PS) last month, will help accelerator physicists and operators gain new insights into the dynamics of the PS beams

Upgraded beam lines will support existing and new collaborations in an environmentally savvy manner in one of CERN’s oldest facilities

This week marks the 50th anniversary of collisions in CERN’s Intersecting Storage Rings, the first hadron collider ever built

Half of a CERN high-gradient test facility embarks on a new life at the University of Melbourne

The PS Booster successfully received its first beams from Linac4 in December. The PSB team is now preparing the machine for acceleration

The upgraded Muon Forward Tracker, one of ALICE’s main subdetectors, was installed in the cavern in December

COVID-19 has undoubtedly had an impact on the activities and schedule of LS2. Nevertheless, the accelerators are now starting up again
