Point 5 - CMS

Team up with a physicist to build a working model of an accelerator using simple material, such as a salad bowl, a ping-pong ball and conductive tape.

Point 4 - LHC

Connect a fire hose and a nozzle, turn on the water and try to reach a target.

Prévessin

Take part in our electricity and magnetism experiments, listen to the sounds of an accelerator or observe our musical Tesla coil playing a tune. Young visitors may take on their first engineering challenge at our motor-making workshop or play our spot-the-difference game.

Meyrin

Discover robotics and programming with the Poppy Ergo Jr robot. It's simple to learn and use, and it will make you familiar with the science of programming.

Point 5 - CMS

Put yourself in the shoes of the operators of the protoDUNE neutrino detector and learn how they visualise the data that the detector captures.
