Commissioner Potonik participates in the inauguration of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN

In Geneva today, European Science and Research Commissioner Janez Poto�nik participates in the formal inauguration of the CERN'S Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest and most complex scientific instrument ever built to study the basic constituents of matters – the fundamental particles. Following the successful circulation of the first beam in the LHC on 10 September, Heads of Government, Research Ministers and High Representatives of CERN's Members and Observer States and other countries, as well as over a thousand leading EU and international scientists will participate in this event. While the bulk of the construction cost of LHC was supported by CERN's Member States, the European Union has been an active participant in the setting up and implementation of the ambitious research programmes of the LHC, in particular thr

CERN Launches Huge LHC Computing Grid

RaaVi writes "Yesterday CERN launched the largest computing grid in the world, which is destined to analyze the data coming from world's biggest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider. The computing grid consists of more than 140 computer centers from around the world working together to handle the expected 10-15 petabytes of data the LHC will generate each year." The Worldwide LHC Computing Grid will initially handle data for up to 7,000 scientists around the world. Though the LHC itself is down for some lengthy repairs, an event called GridFest was held yesterday to commemorate the occasion. The LCG will run alongside the LHC@Home volunteer project.

CERN openlab boosts the performance of LHC computing

06 October 2008 The LHC Grid Fest, held October 3, 2008 at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, and at several sites around the world, commemorated the readiness of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG). At full capacity, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle accelerator, is expected to produce more than 15 million Gigabytes of data each year. Hundreds of millions of subatomic particles will collide each second, presenting a massive data challenge. The mission of the WLCG is to build and maintain the data storage and analysis infrastructure for this immense flow of data, thus helping physicists open new frontiers in our understanding of the Universe.

Cerner (CERN) NewsBite - CERN Upgraded By Caris & Company

Cerner (CERN) was upgraded today by analysts at Caris & Company and the stock is now at $37.55, up $2.50 (7.13%) on volume of 1,342,968 shares traded. The analyst upgraded CERN to "Above Average" from "Average" after the company reported better-than-expected earnings. Over the last 52 weeks the stock has ranged from a low of $31.41 to a high of $60.27. Cerner stock has been showing support around $33.55 and resistance in the $37.71 range. Technical indicators for the stock are bearish and S&P does not currently have a STARS rating for CERN. If you are looking for a hedged play on CERN the stock seems like it could be a candidate for a November out-of-the-money bull-put credit spread below the 32.50 range.

Air Liquide Innovation and Technology at the Service of CERN for the LHC

PARIS--(Business Wire)-- Regulatory News: The largest and most complex scientific instrument ever built will be officially inaugurated at CERN, European Centre for Nuclear Research, on October 21, 2008 by government representatives from the CERN member states, and many other dignitaries. On September 10th, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was successfully started, emitted its first beam of protons and is currently stopped until next Spring. The LHC, the world's most powerful particle accelerator, will break new ground in terms of knowledge of particle physics and will therefore advance fundamental physics research into matter and the birth of the universe. Since 1995, Air Liquide (Paris:AI) has contributed to this exceptional project, developing the "largest refrigerator in the world": a complex and innovative system of liquid helium distr

LHC computing Grid launched

03 October 2008 The LHC Grid is ready to tackle mankind's biggest data challenge from the earth's most powerful accelerator. Three weeks after the first particle beams were injected into the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid combines the power of more than 140 computer centres from 33 countries to analyse and manage more than 15 Pbyte of LHC data every year.

One Billion People Tuned in to See the LHC Break

The CERN scientists said the LHC's big malfunction this weekend was the result of a "faulty electrical connection between two magnets that stopped superconducting, melted and led to a mechanical failure and let the helium out," but we snarky Internet folk know better. It was performance anxiety! With more than a billion people tuning in to watch the first proton beams make their way around the 17-mile ring, the LHC just got a little potty shy. "It is quite overwhelming," said CERN spokesman James Gillies. "We weren't just on the news, we were top of the news." And now you're buried under a mountain of repairs. Get to work so the world can end already! [New Scientist]

The LHC sees its first circulating beam

At 10.28 am on 10 September, the first beam made the full 27 km journey around the LHC, travelling in a clockwise direction. Cheers and applause filled the CERN Control Centre (CCC) as two spots appeared on the screen, indicating that the beam had completed the full circle, from injection at Point 2 round to the same point. The emotion was echoed around CERN where staff and users had been watching events unfold via screens in the main auditorium and elsewhere, as well as in the control rooms of the LHC experiments. Also keenly watching the action were some 250 journalists attending the event, many in the Globe of Science and Innovation.

Infortrend Helps CERN Advance Science

BASINGSTOKE, United Kingdom, Oct. 21, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RAID storage expert Infortrend(r), today announced that CERN, the world's largest particle physics laboratory, met part of their demand for data storage for the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) experiment, which was turned on, on September 10th, 2008, thanks to their implementation of Infortrend EonStor disk arrays. A mixture of different arrays were utilized which included the 8-, 12-, 16- and 24- bay Fibre to SATA products. The EonStor's combination of affordability, reliability and technical features, alongside Infortrend's industry-leading support, put it above rival systems, today protecting over 400TB of research data, generated by the four experiments running on the world-famous Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Panic grips LHC after bomb hoax

LAHORE: Panic gripped litigants and lawyers present at the Lahore High Court (LHC) when the bomb disposal squad (BDS) started searching for explosives on Thursday afternoon. The BDS arrived at the court after the police emergency help line received a telephone call about the presence of a bomb in the LHC, the Anarkali Police Station house officer (SHO) said, adding that the LHC security staff and the BDS had been informed about the call. However, no explosive material was found during the two-hour search operation. The SHO said that the police were trying to trace the unidentified caller who had made the hoax call through telephone number 0345-7082042. However, he added, the number had been switched off. Security personnel deployed at the LHC became more vigilant after the hoax call.

A game on Big Bang experiment

Even as the whole world gets glued to reports on the atom-smasher experiment on the French-Switzerland border that seeks to unravel the Big Bang mystery, 7Seas Technologies has developed a game called ‘Operation Big Bang’ to let the user understand the experiment better. The Hyderabad-based company used mathematical inputs to develop the game with 35 levels. “The game will help the user understand the experiment. It will indicate the processes involved th e Big Bang experiment,� Mr L Maruthi Shankar, Managing Director, said. The company said the game would let the players form a tunnel and pit atoms one against the other, leading to the bang.
