Italy takes top honours among strong competition in the 2012 Global Particle Physics Photowalk. In September 2012, hundreds of amateur and professional photographers had the rare opportunity to explore and photograph accelerators and detectors at particle physics laboratories around the world. The photograph of Nino Bruno, a building contractor in L’Aquila, picturing a tunnel connecting the […]
Lyn Evans pays courtesy visit to Japan’s prime minister Shinzo Abe
On 27 March, LCC Director Lyn Evans paid a courtesy visit to Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The Prime Minister acknowledged the significance of the linear collider project for the whole of humankind. Given that it is an international project, he said he needed to monitor the development closely and would continue to investigate the […]
From design to reality
12 June 2013 is a very special day for the ILC community. We are organising a global event, starting in Tokyo, moving to CERN and finally in Fermilab – to celebrate the publication of the Technical Design Report. We have invited VIPs from across the fields of politics, research funding, science and education to hear talks on […]

Higgs session at Moriond
The Moriond conference, one of the most central physics conferences where latest results are presented to the community, is in full swing. Yesterday, Wednesday, was entirely dedicated to “The SM Scalar boson” – or, in other words, the new particle discovered at the LHC. Both the CMS and ATLAS experiments presented their latest results, and […]
