You will find below information on current and upcoming projects and worksites, as well as general information pages concerning CERN’s infrastructure and its impact on the local area.
HiLumi LHC
The High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider will increase by a factor of ten the number of particle collisions (called “luminosity”), vastly increasing the volume of physics data available for researchers.
This leap forward will allow physicists to explore the behaviour of the Higgs boson and other elementary particles with unprecedented precision, increasing the potential for discoveries after 2030.
Future Circular Collider
The Future Circular Collider could be Europe’s next-generation particle collider: a unique tool to explore the deepest mysteries of the Universe and to drive technology, innovation and skills for decades to come.
This new collider would help answer many questions about nature’s rulebook that lie beyond the reach of current colliders.
Mind where you bore!
With renewable energies on the up and up, geothermal heating is becoming increasingly popular. An ardent supporter of sustainable development, CERN welcomes this trend, even though it has certain risks for the Laboratory.
