CERN

  1. It's time for physics at the LHC: http://ow.ly/1Fevm ... as the machine continues to make great progress: http://ow.ly/1Fewi
  2. CERN has just launched the CERN Global Network - a global community for science and innovation http://ow.ly/1FeqD
  3. LHC experiments savour 10-fold luminosity increase: a taste of things to come. See ATLAS and CMS http://bit.ly/a0XkSv http://bit.ly/coJnRv
  4. Running with successful 'squeezed' beams, the LHC is providing 10 times more luminosity, giving more collisions for the experiments.
  5. With tens of millions of collisions recorded, LHC experiments spot rarer members of the particle family. See LHCb: http://bit.ly/cqcBvj
  6. Word of the week at the LHC: squeeze! Squeezed beams give higher collision rates, and the studies continue. See http://bit.ly/bym62n
  7. #LHC making progress with studies to increase collision rates. See ATLAS and CMS blogs: http://bit.ly/dm8USi http://bit.ly/cEm1TP
  8. Good running at the LHC over Easter weekend, including a period of 21 hours at 3.5 TeV per beam.
  9. Great #LHC physics run overnight with 8 hours of stable beams. Now going in to beam injection and extraction studies.
  10. #LHC is now ramping down. This closes the first physics fill of protons at 7 TeV.Thanks for following and goodbye for today.
  11. Experiments have half million events! More than three hours of stable and colliding beams. WOW!
  12. Experiments have already recorded thousands of events! We had more than 1 hour of stable and colliding beams
  13. The Press Release is now available: http://bit.ly/9A2Me8
  14. Now we have stable colliding beams-first time ever at this energy!
  15. Live webcast: http://bit.ly/aQftoi
  16. Experiments are collecting their first physics data - historic moment here! Watch the webcast, look at the photos - all live!
  17. Nature does it all the time with cosmic rays (and with higher energy) but this is the first time this is done in Laboratory!!
  18. First time in the history!!!!!!!!!!!! World record!!!!!!!!
  19. Experiment have seen collisions!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. Now stabilizing the beams
