Europe cools giant 20-ton magnets at -456°F for 10x particle collision boost
SMRTR summary
Engineers at CERN are nearing completion of a crucial test facility for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider upgrade. The 95-meter-long test stand replicates new segments that will be installed in the LHC, featuring advanced superconducting magnets cooled to -271°C. This upgrade aims to increase collision rates tenfold, enabling more precise particle studies and intensifying the search for new physics phenomena.
