Linear accelerator 2
Linac 2 is the starting point for the protons used in physics experiments at CERN
LHC collides protons with lead ions for the first time
The switch - a test for a longer proton-lead run scheduled for January to February 2013 - presented numerous technical challenges
TOTEM
The 'Total elastic and diffractive cross-section measurement' experiment studies particles thrust forward by collisions in the LHC
The Large Hadron Collider
The 27-kilometre LHC is the world's largest particle accelerator. It collides protons or lead ions at energies approaching the speed of light
The Proton Synchrotron
A workhorse of CERN's accelerator complex, the Proton Synchrotron has juggled many types of particle since it was first switched on in 1959
New results from LHCf proton collisions at 7 TeV
Results from the luminosity scan in 7TeV proton-proton collisions are now available online
