The Large Hadron Collider

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is a monumental achievement in modern science, consisting of two proton rings housed in a 27-kilometer tunnel. Completed in 2007, it operates at an energy of 7 TeV, utilizing 4,000 dipole magnets to steer particles. The LHC's powerful solenoid and muon detectors play crucial roles in bending and analyzing the trajectories of charged particles produced in collisions, allowing scientists to determine their momenta. With a stored energy of 3 GJ, the LHC continues to deepen our understanding of the universe through groundbreaking experiments.
