Newsroom ArchivesItems tagged 'ATLAS' Making Room for More DataAugust 20, 2009 A new building extension at Brookhaven Lab is nearly ready to house computing equipment for huge quantities of data from experiments around the world. Large Hadron Collider and New Developments in Dark Matter Focus of NYU Workshop, Aug. 3July 30, 2009 New York University will host a public workshop to provide an overview of the Large Hadron Collider, featured in this summer’s “Angels & Demons,” on Monday, August 3, 9 a.m.-5 p.m., at NYU’s Kimmel Center for University Life, Eisner and Lubin Auditorium. Data-Taking Dress Rehearsal Proves World’s Largest Computing Grid is Ready for LHC RestartJuly 01, 2009 The world’s largest computing grid has passed its most comprehensive tests to date in anticipation of the restart of the world’s most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider. Dissecting the Science of "Angels & Demons"June 01, 2009 On May 27, Brookhaven physicist Howard Gordon and a panel of local educators separated the science facts from the science fiction of the blockbuster movie "Angels & Demons." The event attracted more than 200 audience members. U.S. CMS and U.S. ATLAS Receive Secretary of Energy's Achievement AwardApril 06, 2009 Secretary of Energy Steven Chu (pictured) presented The Secretary of Energy's Achievement Award to U.S. CMS and U.S. ATLAS at the 2009 Annual DOE Project Management Workshop on March 31 in Alexandria, Virginia. Brookhaven Construction Projects Win DOE AwardMarch 31, 2009 Two large construction projects at Brookhaven -- the U.S. ATLAS Detector Project and the Center for Functional Nanomaterials -- have been named winners of the DOE Secretary's Award for Achievement. The awards are given to DOE facilities to recognize outstanding project management in completing projects within cost and schedule. LHC to Restart in 2009December 05, 2008 CERN has confirmed that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will restart in 2009. This news forms part of an updated report, published today, on the status of the LHC following a malfunction on 19 September. First Beam for Large Hadron ColliderSeptember 10, 2008 An international collaboration of scientists today sent the first beam of protons zooming at nearly the speed of light around the world’s most powerful particle accelerator—the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—located at the CERN laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. Brookhaven's Remote Monitoring Room for ATLASSeptember 04, 2008 Although Brookhaven is nearly 4,000 miles away from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the Lab houses a special space where physicists on site in Upton can be part of the action in Geneva. From the Remote Monitoring Room, scientists will take shifts monitoring data generated in the ATLAS detector when the LHC starts colliding beams of protons. Brookhaven Computing Facility Prepares for LHC DataAugust 25, 2008 Even though the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland has yet to start up, Brookhaven scientists responsible for handling a chunk of the unprecedented data to be produced within the massive accelerator already have their hands dirty. Last Large Piece of ATLAS Detector Lowered UndergroundFebruary 29, 2008 Researchers in the U.S. ATLAS collaboration have joined colleagues around the world to celebrate a landmark in the construction of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) - the lowering of the final piece of the ATLAS particle detector into the underground collision hall at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. |
