Today, the new CERN-MEDICIS facility has produced radioisotopes for medical research for the first time. MEDICIS (Medical Isotopes Collected from ISOLDE) aims to provide a wide range of radioisotopes, some of which can be produced only at CERN.

The crab cavities, a new technology to brighten up the future, will play an important role in the High-Luminosity LHC

Before the LHC was shut down for the winter, the operators tested techniques under development for its successor, the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC)

CERN is helping to align and test a 350-metre column to produce extra-pure argon for a dark-matter search experiment

During the 2017 LHC special runs, the LHCb experiment collected proton-proton and proton-neon data simultaneously for the first time

The last components of AWAKE – its electron source, electron beam line and electron spectrometer – have just been installed

At 10:50 yesterday morning, scientists at the pioneering SESAME light source saw First Monochromatic Light through the XAFS/XRF spectroscopy beamline, signalling the start of the laboratory’s experimental programme.

CERN was the guest of honour at the Automnales, Geneva’s huge annual fair: ten days of encounters and exchanges with the general public.

Steven Weinberg’s iconic paper, A Model of Leptons, was published in 1967 and determined the direction for high-energy particle physics research

The LHC’s 2017 proton run has ended with record luminosity. The special runs will now take place before the winter shutdown.
