CERN welcomes Ireland as an Associate Member State Ireland has officially become an Associate Member State of CERN, following confirmation that it has taken all the necessary steps to ratify the Associate Membership Agreement and accede to the protocol on CERN’s privileges and immunities. The starting date of Ireland’s status as an Associate Member State is 22 October 2025. Find out more: https://lnkd.in/d_3sS5KW

Intensity is on the rise at the #LHC 💫 Earlier this month, the Large Hadron Collider propelled particle bunches containing more than 230 billion protons (2.3 x 10^11): 40% more than usual. These bunches generated an average of 150 collisions, compared to around 65 collisions during normal operations. This improved performance of #CERN’s accelerator complex is only possible thanks to the extensive upgrade of its injectors – the four accelerators which boost the protons to higher intensity before injection into the LHC. Each image shows an event – a collection of simultaneous collisions – reconstructed by the CMS Collaboration and the ATLAS Collaboration. In total, 206 collisions were recorded and are shown here for CMS, and 150 collisions for ATLAS.

#ICYMI here’s a recap of Open Science Fair 2025 From 15 to 17 September, 353 innovators, researchers, and policy leaders from 43 countries came together at #CERNScienceGateway to explore how diverse forms of collaboration can accelerate discovery, enhance knowledge accessibility, and create a more transparent and equitable research ecosystem. The event was hosted by the CERN Open Science Office and OpenAIRE AMKE. Find out more: https://lnkd.in/dF5xm-QH

The ATLAS Experiment at CERN brings together thousands of scientists and engineers from around the world to explore the building blocks of the Universe. From discovering the #Higgsboson to advancing technologies that impact daily life, ATLAS continues to push the boundaries of science through global collaboration. 🎥 Watch our new #multilingual introductory video — now in 6 languages on YouTube, reflecting the truly international spirit of ATLAS. https://lnkd.in/d-UmNZP2
