With the start of electrical powering, the Inner Triplet String is now entering a new phase of commissioning. This phase will be carried out progressively and will culminate in the powering of the whole installation this summer

CERN is soon to enter a demanding and important phase in which safety will be more important than ever

Beam commissioning is progressing well in CERN’s accelerator complex, with beams already at the gates of the SPS

This technical stop is particularly intense, being both shorter than usual, to maximise the limited time for physics, and very busy, to make essential preparations for LS3, which begins in June

The LHC's third run has been extended until July 2026. The long technical stop that will follow will be extended by four months, postponing the start-up of the High-Luminosity LHC until June 2030

The timing and duration of the third long shutdown (LS3) of the Large Hadron Collider and injector complex has changed, here’s why

CERN’s dedicated heavy-ion physics experiment, ALICE, is upgrading its Inner Tracking System and adding a forward calorimeter for the next phase of the LHC upgrade
