CERN Unveils Plans for the Large Hadron Collider's Successor: The Future Circular Collider
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, has revealed ambitious plans for a next-generation particle accelerator that will succeed the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This new project, known as the Future Circular Collider (FCC), aims to push the boundaries of particle physics, offering deeper insights into the fundamental nature of the universe. With cutting-edge technology and unprecedented energy levels, the FCC could unlock answers to some of the most profound scientific mysteries. What is the Future Circular Collider (FCC)? The FCC is a proposed underground particle accelerator with a circumference of approximately 91 kilometers, significantly larger than the 27-kilometer LHC. The FCC will be built beneath the French-Swiss border and extend under Lake Geneva, offering a much more powerful platform for high-energy physics research. Key Objectives of the FCC Explore dark matter and dark energy : Scientists aim to uncover the composition of the universe, which remains large...
