Engineers winding an enhanced racetrack model coil (eRMC) for Future Circular Collider (FCC) magnets. This work is being carried out with Nb3Sn (niobium-tin) superconducting cable in Building 927 at CERN, the European particle physics laboratory. The FCC is a possible future collider that would expand on the work done by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The energies attained by the FCC would be around 30 times that of the LHC, and the FCC would form a ring some 80 to 100 kilometres in length compared to the 27 kilometres of the LHC. The FCC concept has been proposed by CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) since 2013, with a conceptual design report produced in 2019. Photographed on 6 April 2018.
