Accelerate: explore CERN’s particle accelerators

Accelerate explores how particle accelerators work and how they are used to accelerate particles to near the speed of light. Through interactive exhibits, visitors learn how these machines enable scientists to investigate the fundamental structure of matter. An immersive scenography will transport you to the underground tunnels to discover machines of a remarkable scale and complexity.

Collide: find out how CERN studies particles

 Collide focuses on what happens when particles collide inside large detectors. Discover how the giant experiments record these particle collisions and how a global network of computers processes the data. The exhibition reveals how physicists record, analyse and interpret collision data to uncover new particles and phenomena.
