CERN takes to reddit to discuss new energy frontier

Don't miss CERN's "Ask Me Anything" session on the online forum reddit, tomorrow from 4pm CEST. Representatives from the LHC experiments ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb, as well as a CERN theorist and members of the LHC Operations team will be available live on the site’s /r/IAmA sub-forum, answering the community’s questions in real time in written form.

Last week, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) broke the world record for the highest-energy human-made collisions in a particle accelerator. CERN is one step closer to LHC Season 2, with collisions for physics data at 13 teraelectronvolts (TeV) due to start in June.

Ask the researchers your questions about what's in store for the LHC and its experiments at this new energy frontier.

The team of participants includes:

  • ALICE Run coordinator Federico Ronchetti
  • ATLAS collaboration Deputy spokesperson Beate Heinemann
  • CMS Physics coordinator Luca Malgeri
  • LHC Engineer-in-charge Reyes Alemany Fernandez
  • CERN Theorist Andreas Weiler

Got a question? Ask these researchers anything, tomorrow at 4pm CEST. The link will go live here: reddit.com/r/iAMA
