Visit to SynchroCyclotron

• Sandra Elisabeth Muhr (CERN)

The 600-MeV Synchrocyclotron (SC), which came into operation in 1957, was CERN’s first accelerator. It provided beams for CERN’s first experiments in particle and nuclear physics. In 1967, it began supplying beams for a dedicated radioactive-ion-beam facility called ISOLDE, which still carries out research ranging from pure nuclear physics to astrophysics and medical physics. In 1990 the SC closed down after 33 years of service.

Visit to Crystal Clear

• Etiennette Auffray Hillemanns (CERN)

Since then, Crystal Clear is active in academic and applied researches on scintillating materials and on novel ionizing radiation detecting devices, including readout electronics and data acquisition, for particle physics and medical imaging - such as positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography - and on the development of medical imaging prototypes.
