The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest particle accelerator, is located within a 27-km circular tunnel at a depth of approximately 100 meters, with eight sites, called ‘Points’, positioned all along the tunnel.
The project High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) aims to upgrade the LHC thereby enabling the experiments to enlarge their data sample by one
order of magnitude.
Once the new HL-LHC is up and running, two high-energy proton beams will be accelerated and collided under the guidance of 1 600 main superconducting quadrupole and dipole magnets. The hope of the scientific world, thanks to the analysis of the collision data, is to make new discoveries in nuclear physics and observe new and rare physical phenomena.
Breakthroughs in Discovering the Origin of the Universe. Thanks to the upgrading of CERN's particle accelerator, made possible by the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project, scientists will increase the chances of making discoveries that revolutionize our existence in the future. A first important step towards this direction is the completion of the civil engineering works for the project. The experiments will also bring concrete benefits in technology, especially in the field of electrical engineering, such as vacuum and superconductor technologies. The latter are used in various fields and to the benefit of the community, for
example, in imaging diagnostics and cancer treatment. This project should be awarded because of the great and positive impact and benefits that will produce in the next decades for the whole mankind.
