3rd International Conference on Detector Stability and Aging Phenomena in Gaseous Detectors
The conference will be held at CERN in the main Auditorium from November 6th to 10th, 2023
The Technical Galleries Consolidation Project is progressing well
5 km of technical galleries have been scanned and half of them 3D-modelled, and the work to renovate and replace their technical infrastructure is in full swing
From CERN to Jupiter: Juice embarks on its historic journey
Before embarking on its journey, critical components of ESA’s interplanetary mission were tested in the only facility on Earth capable of replicating Jupiter’s harsh radiative environment
The SM18 test facility in the HL-LHC era
SM18 is one of the largest magnet test facilities in the world. Dedicated to testing superconducting magnets and radiofrequency cavities, it is now waiting for the first HL-LHC components
First 3D printing of crucial component to bring accelerators closer to society
The first additive manufacturing of a critical accelerator component paves the way for more affordable and versatile particle accelerators.
A remedy against electron clouds inside particle colliders
An LHC quadrupole whose beam screen had been coated with a fine layer of carbon displayed minimal heat load in comparison to other magnets, constituting a promising step in eliminating electron clouds in future particle accelerators
Winner of the “Mining the Future” competition announced
From brick-building to online flow analyses, ideas abound for sustainable reuse of excavated material from a tunnel for a potential future CERN facility thanks to the “Mining the Future” competition held as part of the FCC Innovation Study.
Guardians of the tunnel
Artificial intelligence technologies are being deployed to inspect and document cracks in CERN’s tunnels in order to assess the risks for the machines inside them
A 3D laser scanner is shaking up component inspection at CERN
A laser scanner acquired in 2020 by the EN department’s metrology laboratory produces high-resolution 3D modelling of a wide variety of components
