No full textOn 11 and 12 January, CERN’s 70th anniversary was celebrated in India at India Science Festival held in Pune, Maharashtra, India. The festival included keynote talks from Joao Antunes Pequenao and Chetna Krishna, CERN Media Lab installations, and a workshop on enhancing science communication through improv skills
Davos Communications Award 2025
No full textAt the Davos Communications Summit held from 9 to 11 April 2025, CERN’s communication efforts were recognised with two prestigious Davos Communications Awards. As part of companies and organisations, CERN won the award in for In-house Team of the Year for their work on CERN's golden year of its 70th anniversary, while CERN alumna Chetna Krishna was honoured as a PR Rising Star in the individual category for her contributions to science communication. These awards celebrate the team’s creativity, global impact, and commitment to excellence in public engagement
Shiv Nadar School students visit CERN
No full textIndian high-school physics students from Shiv Nadar School, campuses in Gurugram and Noida near new Delhi, India, visited CERN. They visited IdeaSquare to learn how CERN links science and society, and how design thinking can help make this link. They dived into a passionate discussion with physicists and other keynote speakers about subjects like antimatter physics by Michael Döser, mechanical engineering by Antonio Alonso, science communication by Chetna Krishna, errors and uncertainties by André David, Space Talk and entry to European Space Agency by Slawosz Uznanski and how to do innovation from fundamental research by Markus Nordberg. Students also visited the Data Centre Visitor Point and CERN's oldest accelerator, the synchrocyclotron, with Mick Storr
Budhan Stories S2E4: Corona, Snakes and Vaccine
No full textEpisode 4 of Season 2 - Corona, Snakes and Vaccine episode explores traditional snake charmer communities; who lives in small hamlets in forest area. The Madari tribe is a nomadic tribe and they normally follow their own traditional medicines and are reluctant to use allopathic medicines. Madari tribe people were very reluctant to take vaccination because they believed that it is a way to reduce the population and people would die after the vaccination. So such a wonderful people, clever but extremely traditional faced Corona in their own ways.Created (Author) by: Chetna Rathid.

Bike2Work 2024: Critical Mass
No full textBike2Work at CERN reaches new heights. 1032 Cernois joined a “Bike to Work” team and a sub-set of those took part in the "Critical Mass event" to celebrate this achievement. The cyclists are grouped in 274 teams, which is three more than in the last exercise. The participants are committed to cycle at least one day in two throughout the months of May and June. The weather has been very unstable with many days of rain. Still, CERN has recorded 56.54% of bike days, a number that is likely to raise towards the end of June

Gift from ALICE to LHC for the first heavy ion run in Run 3
No full textAs the tradition goes, run coordinators of the experiment gift a bottle of champagne to the LHC team on the occasion of the first ion run in Run 3
A flexible cryostat for HL-LHC's new superconducting link
No full textColloquially known as the “python”, the flexible, double-wall, corrugated cryostat comprises 19 MgB2 superconducting cables in a single assembly, twisted together to form a compact bundle. Each MgB2 cable is about 140 metres long with the diameter of the bundle about 90 mm. These 19 superconducting cables can transfer altogether a DC current of about 120 kA at 25 K (-248 °C) – a temperature higher than that at which conventional superconductors operate. In the LHC, Nb-Ti and Nb3Sn cables are operated in superfluid helium at 1.9 Kelvin ( 271.3°C) – a temperature colder than the 2.7 K (-270.5°C) of outer space. The MgB2 cables of the Superconducting Link are cooled by a forced flow of helium gas
