Start of run2 physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)
Démarrage de la deuxième période d'exploitation du Grand collisionneur de hadrons (LHC)


Date: 03-06-2015

Images from the CERN Control Centre (CCC), where operators control the LHC, and from the control rooms of the ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb experiments, where operators control huge detectors that capture data from collisions between beams of protons in the LHC.

Images du Centre de contrôle du CERN (CCC), où les opérateurs pilotent le LHC, et des salles de contrôle des expériences ALICE, ATLAS, CMS et LHCb, où les opérateurs pilotent les énormes détecteurs qui enregistrent les données issues des collisions de faisceaux de protons dans le LHC.

Display of proton-proton collision events recorded by ATLAS on 3 June 2015, with the first LHC stable beams at a collision energy of 13 TeV. Tracks reconstructed from hits in the inner tracking detector are shown as arcs curving in the solenoidal magnetic field. The green and yellow bars indicate energy deposits in the liquid argon and scintillating-tile calorimeters. (Image ATLAS/CERN)
