    LS2 Report: increased cryogenic power at LHC Point 4

    At LHC Point 4, a refrigerator that cools helium from room temperature to 4.5 K (-268.65 °C) has undergone major improvements in preparation for the HL-LHC The LHC is one of the coldest places on Earth. The 1.9 K (-271.3 °C) operating temperature of its main magnets is even lower than the 2.7 K (-270.5…

    The Cryogenics group juggles cold stand-by, training and documentation

    The Cryogenics group carries out all the tasks related to producing and maintaining very low temperatures for CERN’s installations and equipment. As well as managing the cryogenic infrastructures of the LHC and its detectors, the group is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the cryogenics equipment required for the non-LHC detectors and machines, the…
