This check-in point will give you access to the Meyrin site and Point 1 - ATLAS, please bring your registration information with you to receive your wristband.
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.
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.
Discover the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), a study for a possible future machine to collide electrons and positrons (antielectrons) at 3 teraelectronvolts based on novel technologies such as two-beam acceleration.
In this hands-on workshop, you will build your own particle detector using dry ice and isopropanol to make cosmic particles and natural radiation visible.
Code of the Universe is a travelling photographic exhibition that captures worldwide collaborative efforts to understand the universe and how these efforts have led to an array of scientific and technological breakthroughs. Come here to see part of the exhibition. The full exhibition can be seen at https://codeoftheuniverse.web.cern.ch.
Come and discover the particularities of cryogenic liquids and the fascinating properties of matter at low temperatures. You'll also have a chance to taste an excellent ice cream made with liquid nitrogen.
Scintillating crystals give off light when hit by a particle. Find out how they are used in particle-physics experiments, such as CERN's CMS experiment, and in medical imaging.
