⚛️ CERN Team Updates

The CERN Zone is here to give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at modern science in motion, and connect with some of the scientists from those research teams!

The CMS team have been searching for exotic long-lived particles.

Adding a new algorithm to their system for their latest run has increased the results gained from less data.

The Beam Team (the Accelerator and Beam Physics group) are responsible for studying and understanding the different beams (proton, electron, ion etc.) for all of CERN’s accelerators, including the LHC.

The ISOLDE (Isotope mass Separator On-Line facility) team have shared a recent paper from other members of the collaboration reports how the development of nuclear clocks is ticking on…

The AEgIS (Antihydrogen Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) team have recently had one of their collaboration meetings in Warsaw, Poland. Take a look at what Benji has to say about their trip.

The CMS detector uses a huge solenoid magnet to bend the paths of particles from collisions in the Large Hadron Collider. Take a look at their recent evidence of a rare mechanism to produce 4 top quarks!

Two employees in hard hats stare out over a vast LHCb facility. The employee on the left is pointing something out in the distance. It looks like a warehouse filled with mechanical scaffolding.

The ISOLDE (Isotope mass Separator On-Line facility) team tell us about what happened when the service to the ISOLDE Solenoidal Spectrometer’s superconducting magnet went wrong!

Jonathan, from the LHCb (Large Hadron Collider beauty) team has given us an update about what happened when they received results that differed with their predictions.

AEgIS have just finished an antiproton run. Take a look at what they’ll be doing over the next few weeks on their journey towards determining the intense pulsed source of antihydrogen.
