  1. Steve Myers video interview on seven remarkable seven days for CERN http://bit.ly/6WSnvS
  2. #LHC startup: an account of the startup of the PS 50 years ago http://bit.ly/7Im3db
  3. 50yrs ago today #CERN Proton Synchrotron accelerated its first beam of protons - still provides beams for #LHC. http://bit.ly/7FZBIC
  4. Scheduled access to the #LHC tunnel is on the cards for today - then back to commissioning. #CERN
  5. The #LHC accelerated a beam to 540 GeV overnight. Here are the pictures http://bit.ly/4Njuxf. #CERN
  6. CERN's press release has pictures of some of the first collisions http://bit.ly/8U6DVX. #CERN #LHC
  7. There was a press conference earlier in the day, taking stock of what happened over the weekend http://bit.ly/7TXLWH. #CERN #LHC
  8. It's been an eventful day at CERN. It started with two circulating beams and ended with first collisions in four detectors. #CERN #LHC
  9. TWO BEAMS ARE CURRENTLY CIRCULATING IN THE LHC! #CERN #LHC
  10. Good morning from CERN. Over three days, the LHC has had two beams circulating with good lifetimes. It's a good solid start. #CERN #LHC
  11. The anticlockwise beam is now in and circulating... working on improving the beam lifetime #CERN #LHC
  12. RT @CMSexperiment: LHC Beam 2 restarting after a long pause. One shot seen in CMS! #CMS #LHC #CERN
  13. That was a good night for the LHC with periods of quiet beam. Next step - same again for the other beam.
  14. Thanks for following us, and for all the support. We’ll keep you posted if anything interesting happens. http://ow.ly/EkbB #CERN #LHC
  15. This has been a great 24 hours for the LHC. Now the systems commissioning begins, so we’ll be tweeting less often for a while. #CERN #LHC
  16. Nice animation of a beam splash in the LHCb experiment. Look at their page: http://ow.ly/EjUB #CERN #LHC
  17. Welcome back beam 1! This is the clockwise direction:Point 2(ALICE experiment)->3->4->5(CMS)->6->7->8(LHCb)->Point1 (ATLAS).Its' circulating
  18. Machine ready for injection of beam 1, the clockwise beam #CERN #LHC
  19. Were you looking for an animation of the various steps I am describing? From bottle to bang: http://ow.ly/Ej0b #CERN #LHC
  20. Yes,the trick is the concentration of energy in tiny tiny tiny tiny particles.Now,let's move to step 5: particles enter the LHC #CERN #LHC
