CERN Brochure – Destination Universe: The Incredible Journey of a Proton in the Large Hadron Collider
A 55 page color-A4 booklet.This brochure illustrates the incredible journey of a proton as he winds his way through the CERN accelerator chain and ends up inside the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC is CERN’s flagship particle accelerator which can collide protons together at close to the speed of light, creating circumstances like those…
