Interesting case from #CERN where #Russia team leaving the project sabotaged continued operations of the module they delivered by refusing to supply documentation on its operations, thus threatening continuity of the project: When CERN definitively ended its cooperation with Russia, engineers were left with Russian equipment for which complete documentation was lacking. Shutting down the equipment threatened to paralyse the key ALICE experiment. That’s when the Poles stepped in, figured out how the Russian equipment worked, reverse engineered it, and not only saved the project, but became key players in the Large Hadron Collider. Krystian Rosłon from the Warsaw University of Technology revealed the details of this incredible operation to the PAP Nauka news agency.

Large Hadron Collider: Kühlwasser versorgt Wohngegend mit Wärme Das für die Kühlung des Large Hadron Colliders am CERN benötigte Wasser wird nun zum Heizen eingesetzt: Es versorgt Ferney-Voltaire mit Fernwärme. https://www.heise.de/news/Large-Hadron-Collider-Kuehlwasser-versorgt-Wohngegend-mit-Waerme-11161893.html?wt_mc=sm.red.ho.mastodon.mastodon.md_beitraege.md_beitraege&utm_source=mastodon #CERN #Energie #LargeHadronCollider #Physik #Wissenschaft #news

Wouldn't it be cool to say that your home was heated by the Large Hadron Collider? A new blogpost on CERN's website says that is exactly what's happening in the French town of Ferney-Voltaire. Here's how it works. https://flip.it/o9j30C #CERN #Science #Technology #LargeHadronCollider #France

Today at #CERN sure was a day, got to see CLIC a cute little linac, and then a look through the Antimatter factory, including ELANA, Gbar, the Antiproton decelerator, and AEgIS. Pictures are in that order.
