HL-LHC short-model magnets tests are going full speed ahead
HL-LHC short-model magnets tests are going full speed ahead By Stefania Pandolfi There is no break for the team developing the magnets for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project. During the summer, the third in a series of short, 1.5-metre-long magnet models was successfully tested. This model is made up entirely of coils constructed at CERN and
