Large Hadron Collider reaches its first stable beams in 2024
WEBOn Friday 5 April, at 6.25 p.m., the LHC Engineer-in-Charge at the CERN Control Centre (CCC) announced that stable beams were back in the Large Hadron Collider, marking the official start of the 2024 physics data-taking season. The third year of LHC Run 3 promises six months of 13.6 TeV proton collisions at an even higher luminosity than before, …
The Large Hadron Collider - CERN
WEBThe Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. It first started up on 10 September 2008, and remains the latest addition to CERN’s accelerator complex. The LHC consists of a 27-kilometre ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the ...

Large Hadron Collider restarts - CERN
WEBApr 22, 2022 · The world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator has restarted after a break of more than three years for maintenance, consolidation and upgrade work. Today, 22 April, at 12:16 CEST, two beams of protons circulated in opposite directions around the Large Hadron Collider’s 27-kilometre ring at their injection energy of 450 billion …
The third run of the Large Hadron Collider has successfully started
WEBJul 5, 2022 · A round of applause broke out in the CERN Control Centre on 5 July at 4.47 p.m. CEST when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detectors switched on all subsystems and started recording high-energy collisions at the unprecedented energy of 13.6 TeV, ushering in a new physics season. This feat was made possible thanks to the operators …
CERN approves new LHC experiment
WEBApr 27, 2021 · The world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator is getting a new experiment. In March 2021, the CERN Research Board approved the ninth experiment at the Large Hadron Collider: SND@LHC, or Scattering and Neutrino Detector at the LHC. Designed to detect and study neutrinos, particles similar to the electron but with no …
Accelerator Report: Beams injected into the LHC ahead of heavy …
WEBSep 1, 2023 · Beams are once again being injected into the Large Hadron Collider, with the status noted in real-time on LHC Page 1. On 30 August, beams were once again injected into the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), slightly ahead of the revised schedule. A few days will now be required to recommission the machine with the beam, to revalidate the machine's ...
LHCb discovers three new exotic particles - CERN
WEBJul 5, 2022 · The international LHCb collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has observed three never-before-seen particles: a new kind of “pentaquark” and the first-ever pair of “tetraquarks”, which includes a new type of tetraquark. The findings, presented today at a CERN seminar, add three new exotic members to the growing list of new hadrons …
The Future Circular Collider - CERN
WEBThe Future Circular Collider (FCC) study is developing designs for higher performance particle colliders that could follow on from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) once it reaches the end of its (High-Luminosity phase). The ongoing FCC Feasibility Study, expected to conclude in 2025, is investigating the technical and financial viability of the ...
