Experimental Areas at IPAC 2026
Experimental Areas at IPAC 2026 The CERN Experimental Areas group was strongly represented at IPAC 2026, held in Deauville, France from 17 to 22 May. The conference brought together the international accelerator community to discuss developments in beam dynamics, accelerator technology, operation, optimisation and future facilities. The strategic importance of CERN’s fixed-target infrastructure was also

How a small number changed the universe
How a small number changed the universe More than 4 decades of kaon experiments in CERN’s North Area proved how a small number changed the universe. The recent history of kaon physics experiments at the SPS started in the beginning of 1980 in the office of the later Nobel Prize winner Jack Steinberger with a

Giants from CERN’s North Area
Giants from CERN’s North Area During Herwig Schopper’s acclaimed period as CERN Director General, two North Area experiments made three seminal discoveries, of which two of them still leave physicists puzzled. During the 1980s and with Herwig Schopper leading the Laboratory into the LEP era, CERN’s North Area witnessed groundbreaking physics experiments, such as the
