Today, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has initiated the test collisions of proton beams for the first time this year. While these are only test collisions, they are an essential step along the way to serious data taking, which is expected to kick off in early May. Find out more: http://cern.ch/go/Q7wm | CERN

It’s the #LHC drone patrol 🫡 In this #PhotoOfTheWeek we’re treating you to a tour of the 27 km-long Large Hadron Collider tunnel. Earlier this month, beams of protons were injected into the Large Hadron Collider for the first time in 2025, one of the many steps that lead to the beginning of the #physics season, when the CERN experiments start collecting data on collisions at the highest energy. #BeamTime Stable beams at 6.8 TeV and particle collisions have now returned to the LHC, marking the s
