  1. CERN The world’s largest Particle Physics Research Center in Geneva CERN HST 2001

  2. 92 41 34 20 countries members and many users CERN HST 2001

  3. What does CERN do? Fundamental research at the highest energy CERN HST 2001

  4. They use different accelerators CERN HST 2001

  5. LEP The large Electron Positron collider is in a circular tunnel 27 km round and 100 m underground CERN HST 2001

  6. APPLICATIONS These are some of the applications of technologies developed at CERN for particle physics research 1.- World-Wide Web invented at CERN (www.cern.ch) 2.- Contribution to developments in technologies such as superconductivity, cryogenics, vacuum… 3.- Cancer therapy, medical and industrial imaging, radiation processing, electronics, measuring instruments, new manufacturing processes and materials, food preservation techniques, destruction of toxic products, CERN HST 2001

  7. LHC (Large Hadron Collider) • Beams of protons-protons will collide at an energy of 14 TeV • LHC will replace the LEP (beams of electrons-positrons at an energy less than 200 GeV ( 1 TeV = 103 GeV) CERN HST 2001

  8. DETECTORS CERN HST 2001

  9. WILL IT BE POSSIBLE TO PROCESS THE HUGE AMOUNT OF DATA? CERN HST 2001

  10. The GRID: a new computing infrastructure CERN HST 2001

  11. Thank you ! CERN HST 2001
