Superconducting radio-frequency cavity in the LHC tunnel, CERN


14 and 15 September 2019, CERN has open its doors to the public for two days at the heart of one of the world’s largest particle-physics laboratories. To accelerate particles, the accelerators are fitted with metallic chambers containing an electromagnetic field known as radiofrequency (RF) cavities. Charged particles injected into this field receive an electrical impulse that accelerates them.
