Some notes on CERN.
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia.


The main aim of CERN is to provide researchers with the tools necessary for research in high-energy physics. These are mainly particle accelerators, which carry atomic nuclei and subnuclear particles at very high energies, and detectors that allow to observe the products of the collisions between beams of these particles. At sufficiently high energies, in the collisions many different particles are produced, in some cases particles previously unknown were discovered in this way.
