Maurizio Vretenar of CERN aims to develop a miniature particle accelerator that can be used by museums to analyze paintings and jewelry.Insight - Non-Destructive Testing and Condition Monitoring, with NDT News
It has not discovered the Higgs Boson — not yet, anyway — but the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator has revealed a never-before-discovered particle comprised of three quarks. The discovery, which was announced Friday bySymmetry Magazine, was made byUniversity of Zurichphysicists...
Known for its commitment to unraveling the mysteries of the universe, CERN has added many strings of astounding achievements to its bow: In 1973, it discovered neutral current. Then ten years later, CERN’s UA1 and UA2 experiments found the W and Z bosons. In 2012, the ATLAS and CMS exp...
IN FOCUS NEWS PHYSICS CERN to test revolutionary mini-accelerator Plasma wakefield machines aim to reach high energies without huge gains in size. BY ELIZABETH GIBNEY The home of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle accel- erator, is getting a new machine — and...
Today, the WWW is regarded as an afterthought at CERN, with only small references to it in their public exhibits. CERN has two exhibitions open to the public, the Globe of Science and Innovation and the Microcosm exhibit. Individual and group tours are also offered Monday through Saturday in...
A new particle accelerator unveiled at CERN, the European physics research centre, is expected to spawn portable accelerators that could help doctors treat cancer patients and experts analyse artwork. CERN is gradually upgrading its hardware to get more data from the Large Hadron Collider...
Measuring and controlling, in real time, the position of bulk components to absorb energetic particles out of the nominal beam core with high reliability and accuracy at the world’s most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The Solution: Using LabVIEW, the LabVIEW Re...
DITZINGEN, Germany, Nov. 25, 2022 — TRUMPF has additively manufactured a core component of future particle accelerators as part of the EU-funded I.FAST (Innovation Fostering in Accelerator Science and Technology) project coordinated by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). According...
The High-Luminosity LHC, as CERN’s upgraded accelerator is known, will ratchet up the intensity of its particle beams by a factor of five when it comes online around 2026. The technological demands will be staggering. Each collision produces 1 megabyte of data. Today, all the LHC experiments...
we explored the marvels of science at CERN. The guided tour around CERN included visit to antimatter factory, the first particle accelerator, models of the current particle accelerator and exhibitions. This tour was both educational...
