CERN Accelerating science

The Future Circular Collider (FCC) collaboration submits its Conceptual Design Report (CDR) for publication

Tests carried out in 2018 on two crab cavities in the SPS validated their technical principle and many operating parameters

The end of the LHC’s second run makes way for a busy long shutdown

The CERN accelerator complex is being switched off step-by-step in order to prepare for Long Shutdown 2 (LS2)

The beam screen for the High-Luminosity LHC will be installed by 2024 in the aperture of the inner triplet superconducting magnets near ATLAS and CMS

After an outstanding performance, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the accelerator complex and the experiments are now stopping for two years for major improvements and upgrading.

Registration is now open for the CERN Accelerator School’s course on High-Gradient Wakefield Accelerators, to be held in Sesimbra, Portugal from 11 March to 22 March 2019

In October, for the first time, crystal collimators were used to improve the performance of the beam cleaning process at the LHC during a physics run
