collisions 13Tev: new record for the CERN in Geneva. After 2 years of hard work and several months of preparation for the restart, the L arge Hadron Collider (LHC), the most powerful particle accelerator in the world (27 km long), is back in operation at CERN in Geneva and is giving some real “satisfaction”.
The CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) is the largest laboratory in the world dedicated to particle physics. It has in its interior currently 7 main accelerators, built in several years and that all together constitute, in turn, a machine extremely powerful. In fact since the beginning of the experience of CERN it was expected that each new machine would use those as the previous injectors. The youngest was just LHC.
The staff who work on the LHC consists of a large number of physicists from around the world among which there are also many Italians coordinated by INFN.
The physical Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have defined the experiment who scored today a milestone on the road to innovation and new phase of activity of RUN 2. There have been collisions today to 13 trillion electron volts in what is the largest accelerator in the world.
According to scientists, these collisions serve, essentially, to prepare the machine (the accelerator) for its new course. These experiments will allow to verify the stability of the beams, which are now more focused than ever before, and the various systems of protection of the tracers.
According to scientists when declared by the LHC and Anna Di ciaccio (national coordinator of ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus)) the first tests with the beams to 6.5 TeV energy went well and beyond all expectations.
We trust that this new exploration made the LHC will help us shed some ‘light on the many components obscure the enormous universe, and why not, perhaps revealing some great little secret. The success of the experiment today shows the quality of the work done by CERN which is a beacon for the whole world and not only European research.
