Cryogenics for the Large Hadron Collider [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Appiled Superconductivity, 2000 The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 26.7 km circumference superconducting accelerator equipped with high-field magnets operating in superfluid helium below 1.9 K, has now fully entered construction at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. The heart of the LHC cryogenic system is the quasi-isothermal magnet cooling scheme, in which flowing ...

Big Science and the Large Hadron Collider [PDF]
Physics in Perspective, 2012 The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the particle accelerator operating at CERN, is probably the most complex and ambitious scientific project ever accomplished by humanity. The sheer size of the enterprise, in terms of financial and human resources, naturally raises the question whether society should support such costly basic-research programs. I address

A Large Hadron Electron Collider at the LHC [PDF]
Proceedings of the XVI International Workshop on Deep-Inelastic Scattering and Related Topics, 2008 Following HERA, the LHeC represents a new ep/eA collider of much increased luminosity and energies. Using the LHC, with Ep between 1 and 7TeV, complemented by an electron ring or linac, with Ee possibly up to 140 GeV, a new range of DIS opens up and precise investigations of the proton structure and new phenomena at TeV energies become possible.

Computing for the Large Hadron Collider [PDF]
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2011 Following the first full year of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data taking, the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) computing environment built to support LHC data processing and analysis has been validated. In this review, I discuss the rationale for the design of a distributed system and describe how this environment was constructed and deployed ...

The future of the Large Hadron Collider and CERN [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2012 This paper presents the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its current scientific programme and outlines options for high-energy colliders at the energy frontier for the years to come. The immediate plans include the exploitation of the LHC at its design luminosity and energy, as well as upgrades to the LHC and its injectors.

The technical challenges of the Large Hadron Collider [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2015 The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a 27 km circumference hadron collider, built at CERN to explore the energy frontier of particle physics. Approved in 1994, it was commissioned and began operation for data taking in 2009. The design and construction of the LHC presented many design, engineering and logistical challenges which involved pushing a number

Composite Weak Bosons at the Large Hadronic Collider [PDF]
New Physics at the Large Hadron Collider, 2016 In a composite model of the weak bosons the p-wave bosons are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which has been discovered at the LHC. Specific properties of the excited bosons are discussed, in particular their decays into weak bosons and photons. Recently a two-photon signal has been observed, which might come from
