Lecture series: The LHC: an accelerator of science
CERN is soon to commission the world’s most powerful accelerator, the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), which will provide us with new insights into the Universe and how it evolved. This series of lectures is all about understanding the scientific and technological challenges of this phenomenal project and assessing its innovations through their everyday applications. Come and take a sneak preview of the LHC!
Accelerate: as fast as the speed of light
The LHC will accelerate beams of particles to a speed close to that of light. To bend their trajectory as they travel around the ring, the world’s largest superconducting facility is to be commissioned, giving the LHC state-of-the-art technology in both the superconduction and the cryogenics fields.
