The Large Hadron Collider - CERN
Sep 10, 2008 · The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. It consists of a 27-kilometre ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the particles along the way.
Facts and figures about the LHC - CERN
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the most powerful particle accelerator ever built. The accelerator sits in a tunnel 100 metres underground at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, on the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva, Switzerland.

About - CERN
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. It first started up on 10 September 2008, and remains the latest addition to CERN’s accelerator complex. The LHC consists of a 27-kilometre ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the ...
Accelerators - CERN
The Large Hadron Collider is the largest and most powerful collider in the world. It boosts the particles in a loop 27 kilometres in circumference at an energy of 6.5 TeV (teraelectronvolts), generating collisions at an energy of 13 TeV.

The Future Circular Collider - CERN
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) study is developing designs for higher performance particle colliders that could follow on from the Large Hadron Collider once it reaches the end of its (High-Luminosity phase).
FASER measures high-energy neutrino interaction strength
Apr 4, 2024 · FASER is located in a side tunnel of the LHC accelerator, 480 metres away from the ATLAS detector collision point. At that location, the LHC beam is already nearly 10 metres away, bending away on its circular 27-kilometre path. This is a unique location for studying weakly interacting particles produced in the LHC collisions.
The accelerator complex - CERN
This animation shows the path of the protons through CERN's accelerator complex to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Video: CERN. The accelerator complex at CERN is a succession of machines that accelerate particles to increasingly higher energies.
ATLAS - CERN
ATLAS is one of two general-purpose detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It investigates a wide range of physics, from the Higgs boson to extra dimensions and particles that could make up dark matter.
