New injection and acceleration equipment is being installed in the PS Booster, which is in the midst of a major overhaul
Ten new magnets are already being connected
Teams are hard at work in the LHC tunnel to improve the electrical insulation of the diodes of more than 1200 magnets
Work has begun to improve the electrical insulation of the diodes of the 1232 dipole magnets in the LHC
A new superconducting electrical transmission line for the High-Luminosity LHC uses new materials, a new cooling system and unprecedented technologies
The installation and commissioning of the new facility is one of the biggest challenges of LS2 for the SPS team
CERN test facility to test superconducting magnets of new GSI accelerator
Not much more than the name will remain of the old East Area before too long. After LS2, the new PS experiment area will be a hub of technology
