Since 2003, a LHC dipole magnet turned into a telescope has been following the Sun's movements from behind a concrete wall. This is the CAST experiment - hunting for hypothetical "axion" particles that could be produced in the centre of our star ☀️ Find out more about this experiment: https://home.cern/science/experiments/cast | CERN

Grab your hard hat, we're off to see the ATLAS Experiment at CERN! Enjoy a 40 minutes guided 360° tour of the world's largest particle-physics experiment from the comfort of your own home. This full-length tour recreates a public tour of the ATLAS Experiment, while also taking you to parts of the cavern only accessible to engineers. It is a unique opportunity to explore the experiment with physicist Dr. Sascha Mehlhase, who explains the physics and engineering behind this mammoth detector. Watch

Highlights of the year at CERN, with numerous physics results, new technologies and much more. Whether you’re passionate about science or simply curious, young or not so young, interested in technology or in international cooperation, 2018 had some wonderful surprises in store for you at CERN. From new studies on the Higgs boson to the start-up of antimatter experiments, the inauguration of the Esplanade des Particules and innovative applications for medicine and society, CERN shone in many fiel

The ATLAS Experiment at CERN has recently finalised the upgrading of one of the experiment’s sub-detectors, called the Small Muon Wheel (in spite of its 10m size, which is nothing but small!). In this teaser, announcing a live event featuring the detector, the new Small Muon Wheel is seen at the LHC surface hall, being finalised before being lowered 100 metres underground.
