CERN wants four times larger particle accelerator to build
Science In Geneva, switzerland, is now the largest particle accelerator in the world, but the physicists of the European Centre for particle inspection (CERN) have a much bigger project in store. They want to a Future Circular Collidor’ (FCC) building, which is four times larger than the current LHC cyclotron and 24 billion euros would cost. This is evident from a concept.

The new particle accelerator would consist of a 100-kilometer-long tunnel, partly under the lake of Geneva. The current tunnel is 27 kilometers long. The new capacity would be at the latest 2040 should be operational.

In a particle accelerator are loaded particles of which an atom is gigantic accelerated to the speed of light – for fundamental research, for example to the existence of the universe. CERN currently has the largest particle accelerator in the world, but other countries such as Japan and China have their own plans.

In the FCC project, in different stages would be built, it would be up to ten times more energy can be produced than today, which, for example, the conditions just after the big bang can be simulated, and possible new matter could be discovered. the

An international panel still needs the green light for the construction of the Future Circular Collidor.
