LHCb announces its 2025 collaboration prizes Congratulations to the 2025 winners of the LHCb Thesis Awards, Early Career Scientist Awards and Technical Awards. The awards were presented during LHCb week at CERN on Wednesday, 18 June 2025. “These prizes recognise the excellent work performed by some of our collaborators, but there were also many others […]

“Accelerating minds”: a TE department workshop to foster exchanges   On 3 June 2025, the CERN Technology (TE) department held the first-ever TE Graduate Workshop (TEGW2025), a full-day event designed to give TE graduates, fellows, students and trainees a chance to present their work to the whole department. The goals of the workshop were to

Accelerator Report: The LHC wraps up its first 2025 physics block The first proton–proton physics block of the 2025 LHC schedule concluded on 19 June at 6.00 a.m. It delivered 24 fb-1 of integrated luminosity to the ATLAS and CMS experiments, slightly below the forecast (26 fb-1) because of some time-consuming issues in the LHC. Indeed, while the

AMS upgrade passes qualification tests with flying colours The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02), a particle physics detector installed on the International Space Station (ISS), is being prepared for a major upgrade that will allow physicists to dig deeper into the mysterious behaviour of high-energy cosmic rays. Key components for the upgraded detector have been undergoing

First-ever collisions of oxygen at the LHC LHC Page 1 today at 05:55 am. (Image: CERN) A major event at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC): the accelerator has just collided beams of protons and oxygen ions for the very first time. From 29 June to 9 July, the LHC will switch to a special operations:

Computer Security: Internet of Damn Insecure Stupid Things The TN (Technical Network) v3.0 (see our previous article) is a necessary step forward in properly and thoroughly securing the control systems used at CERN for accelerator operation and facility management and for running our (digital) infrastructure of lifts, electricity, cooling and ventilation, heating, site security, etc.

LibreOffice stands out as a privacy-respecting open source office suite. Unlike proprietary alternatives, the software is designed with privacy, user control and transparency in mind. (This is part of The Document Foundation’s Annual Report for 2024 – we’ll post the full version here soon.) Introduction Concerns about end user privacy in the digital world have

CMS finds unexpected excess of top quarks The CMS collaboration at CERN has observed an unexpected feature in data produced by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which could point to the existence of the smallest composite particle yet observed. The result, reported at the Rencontres de Moriond conference in the Italian Alps this week, suggests that

AEgIS transforms smartphone sensors into an antimatter camera of unprecedented resolution Did you know that the camera sensor in your smartphone could help unlock the secrets of antimatter? The AEgIS collaboration, led by Professor Christoph Hugenschmidt’s team from the research neutron source FRM II at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), has developed a detector
