  2. Synchro-Cyclotron (CERN) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro-Cyclotron_(CERN)

    The Synchro-Cyclotron, or Synchrocyclotron (SC), built in 1957, was CERN ’s first accelerator. It was in circumference and provided for CERN's first experiments in particle and nuclear physics. It accelerated particles to energies up to 600 MeV. The foundation stone of CERN was laid at the site of the Synchrocyclotron by the first Director ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_Synchrotron

    Proton Synchrotron. The Proton Synchrotron (PS, sometimes also referred to as CPS [1]) is a particle accelerator at CERN. It is CERN's first synchrotron, beginning its operation in 1959. For a brief period the PS was the world's highest energy particle accelerator. It has since served as a pre-accelerator for the Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR ...

    The ladder to the lower right gives an impression of scale. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment is one of two large general-purpose particle physics detectors built on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland and France. The goal of the CMS experiment is to investigate a wide range of physics, including the search for the ...

    The Large Electron–Positron Collider (LEP) was one of the largest particle accelerators ever constructed. It was built at CERN, a multi-national centre for research in nuclear and particle physics near Geneva, Switzerland. LEP collided electrons with positrons at energies that reached 209 GeV. It was a circular collider with a circumference ...
