How to create photons you can see CERN 2022-11-08 | Scintillating detectors at CERN rely on luminescence, sometimes known as "cold light", to detect high-energy particles. In this first physics explainer video of the #CERNSolvayEducation Programme, we discuss how light is created, how incandescence ("warm light") differs from luminescence ("cold light") and how we use the latter in scintillation detectors. This course video is designed for teenagers who want to go beyond high-school physics and get an introduction to CERN #physics and #technology. Find the interactive version of this video over on our website, https://cern.ch/photons, and the rest of the videos in this series in our playlist youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAk-9e5KQYEpoWZHUQJQHE0bNSJX9bm_O.CERN and @Solvay Group launch #STEMeducation programme for high school students with #CERNSolvayEducation, as part of the education portfolio of #CERNScienceGateway, CERN's new flagship project for science education and outreach. #TeachingTuesday ____________________________________________________Chapters0:00-1:18 Introduction1:18-5:39 Incandescence5:59-12:27 Luminescence12:27-16:40 Fluorescence & phosphorescence16:40-18:03 Scintillators18:03-19:15 Conclusion____________________________________________________External works referenced in this video:Visible Spectra of the Elements – http://umop.net/spectraTaboada, Carlos, et al.

A leaky bottle & the ATLAS particle detector? CERN 2022-11-15 | What is the link between a leaky bottle... and the optical fibres in the @ATLAS Experiment particle detector? ⛲️⚙️In this #CERNSolvayEducation video, we look at a jet of water and flexible fibres in the Tile Calorimeter of the ATLAS detector. They both can guide light through multiple reflections and change its colour from blue to green! For our leaky bottle, the light comes from a laser pointer, but in ATLAS, the light comes from high-energy particles hitting scintillating tiles. 👉More on scintillation: youtu.be/so8Hk27l_JY 👉More on light guiding and colour shifting: https://cern.ch/leaky-bottle#TeachingTuesday #CERNScienceGateway #STEM #Education @Solvay Group
Muon Collider: A great potential for high-energy physics! CERN 2022-11-04 | The concept of using colliding beams of oppositely charged muons dates back to the late 1960s, with F.F. Tikhonin, G.I. Budker and A.N. Skrinski. The interest of the muon collider has been recently revived as the latter promises a sustainable path towards very high energy and the first International Muon Collider Collaboration workshop took place at CERN from October 11 to October 14, 2022 (see https://muoncollider.web.cern.ch/welcome-page-muon-collider-website and https://indico.cern.ch/event/1175126/ ). High-energy lepton colliders combine cutting edge discovery potential with precision measurements. Because leptons are point-like particles, in contrast to protons, they can achieve comparable physics at lower centre-of-mass energies. The relative physics reach depends on the channels considered but a 10 TeV lepton collider would be comparable to a 100 TeV proton-proton collider. The large muon mass suppresses synchrotron radiation and enables the use of circular accelerator and collider rings. However, the short muon lifetime limits the number of turns in these rings and all the challenges of such a collider are linked to the fact that muons are decaying particles. Despite these many challenges, no showstopper has been identified yet and a muon collider is a very promising option for the future of the high-energy physics.ContributorsDirector: Fichet, Jacques HerveCo-Producer: Metral, Elias

Live from CERN: Join us for the first collisions for physics at 13.6 TeV! CERN 2022-07-05 | In April 2022, CERN restarted the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) after more than three years of maintenance and upgrades, known as Long Shutdown 2 (LS2).Since then, experts have worked around the clock to progressively recommission the machine and safely ramp up the energy and intensity of the beams before delivering collisions to the LHC experiments at the world-record energy of 13.6 trillion electronvolts (13.6 TeV).
