What Is CERN? CERN sits astride the Franco–Swiss border, near Geneva. CERN primarily consists of Particle Accelerators, which speed up the particles and then crash them together in order to find out what they are made of.

Particle Accelerators Particle Accelerators speed particles up to close to the speed of light. There are two different types, Linear and Circular. These particles are sped up using electric fields, and curved round using a magnetic field. The new particle accelerator that they are building will be the biggest and most powerful in the world.

Particle Detectors Once the particles have been created they have to be detected. It is quite difficult to detect some particles, as you cannot see them using ordinary light.

The ATLAS detector At CERN

Used more iron in its construction than all the Iron in the Eiffel Tower

The final result of a Tracking Chamber even though it can’t ‘see’ the particles

The Compact Muon Solenoid, CERN

CERN We are now going to produce a model of what goes on in a particle accelerator. Please do everything correctly, it will be fun!
