Explorer

Find out about the Axion Solar Telescope (CAST), which searches for candidate particles for dark matter and dark energy from the Sun. The telescope is made from a prototype of a magnet for the LHC, and tracks the Sun for 100 minutes in the morning.

Discover how CERN gives back knowledge and technologies to society, the Laboratory's impact all over the world and its future plans to stimulate scientific curiosity in the public at large. Discover also CERN's Science Gateway project for a new scientific education and outreach centre designed by world-renowned architects Renzo Piano Building Workshop.

Point 1 - ATLAS

Discover the nerve centre from which the particles of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are controlled.

Prévessin

Come and see a selection of photos taken by members of the CERN Photo Club.

Meyrin

See part of a working accelerator facility, the recent user facility for accelerator R&D CLEAR, learn about how it operates, and find out about the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) study, which used a former test facility from which CLEAR evolved.

Meyrin

Visit the two-beam modules laboratory and get a sneak preview of what the proposed future Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) accelerator could look like. The lab contains three prototype two-beam modules, mechanical mock-ups used to study this principal building block of CLIC.
