Forecasting the LINAC3 Ion Beam Current

In the last decade or so, the main attraction at CERN has been the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which was indispensable to the discovery of the Higgs boson, as well as that of many other particles.[1] The LINAC3 is an integral part of the CERN accelerator complex, as it provides the initial ion b

Grafana for WinCC-OA based SCADA systems at CERN

WinCC-Open Architecture is a toolkit for creating Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) applications. There are about 650 instances of WinCC OA deployed across the accelerator control systems and experiments at CERN.

The ATLAS Detector as a Muon Fixed-Target Experiment: Using Generative Models to Simulate Muonic Force Carriers

Greater luminosities of future Large Hadron Collider runs will demand an unprecedented number of event simulations. Computationally that would be an extremely demanding task. Hence new approaches for such undertakes are required.

Automated Benchmarking of Algorithms for Quantum Systems

We have developed a software platform, ABAQUS (Automated Benchmarking of Algorithms for Quantum Systems), that can be used to benchmark the performance of both software frameworks and hardware devices used in the simulation of quantum computers.

Performance Visualization of ROOT/IO on HPC Storage Systems

HPC systems are becoming ever more important as a data processing resource for the LHC experiments. HPC sites typically use storage systems different from the well-understood HEP storage systems.

International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Two interviews with Kathy Christoforou and Maria Girone

In 2015, the United Nations General Assembly declared February 11 as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. The goal is to achieve full and equal access to and participation of women and girls in science and to further advance gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.

COMTRADE 360 COLLABORATION WITH CERN PRESENTED AT EXPO 2020

Comtrade 360, under the Slovenian Pavilion, recently presented areas of its core business and advancements in AI at the ongoing EXPO 2020 in Dubai. One of these presentations was made in collaboration with representatives from CERN.

New computational platform to study biological processes

Scientists have launched a unique software that is able to perform highly complex simulations of a variety of biological processes. 

IBM welcomes CERN as a new hub in the IBM Quantum Network

Particle physics is at the core of our understanding of the fundamental laws governing Nature. To shed light on the sub-atomic scale, humans engineered powerful particle accelerators that can disclose the fundamental laws governing the universe.
