Large Hadron Collider upgraded to High-Luminosity successor

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is undergoing a significant upgrade to its successor, the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). While largely retaining its original structure, the enhanced machine is designed to deliver ten times the luminosity of its predecessor. This upgrade aims to increase the collider's scientific output, though the developers assure it poses no existential threat. AI

    Large Hadron Collider goes offline to make room for its enhanced successor

    The High-Luminosity LHC will be mostly the same machine, but it'll deliver 10 times the luminosity and just as little chance of destroying the universe - sorry, conspiracy theorists
