CERN
Bulletin

The CLIC collaboration has commissioned its new installation and put the first beam into operation. >>

Following the recent incident in Sector 3-4, which has brought the start-up of the LHC to a halt, the various teams are working hard to establish the cause, evaluate the situation and plan the necessary repairs. The LHC will be started up again in spring 2009 following the winter shutdown for the maintenance of all the CERN installations. >>

Thanks to the first real signals received from the LHC while in operation before the incident, the experiments are now set to make the best use of the data they have collected. Report from the LHCC open session. >>

The official ceremony for the inauguration of the LHC with Heads of State and Ministers from CERN’s Member States, to be held on Tuesday 21 October, will be followed by an LHCfest to thank all those who took part in bringing the accelerator to completion. >>

The Film-Making Club was created in 2005, and already has ten short films to its credit. Spotlight on a club that does more than making movies! >>

On Thursday 18 September 2008, members of the CERN Management welcomed recently recruited staff members and fellows at the second part of the Induction Programme. >>
