Esta página contém a informação necessária para a visita ao CERN organisada pela AGRAPS - Associação dos Graduados Portugueses na Suiça

e pela FEUPLink - comunidade Alumni da Faculdade de Engenharia da Universidade do Porto (FEUP).

Além da agenda do dia, contém os links com descrições dos diversos pontos a visitar e informação sobre os trajectos.

Os horários serão cumpridos rigorosamente, pelo que se aconselha chegar mais cedo, para encontrar estacionamento e para que todos possam integrar os grupos da visita.

Links GoogleMaps com informação para chegar ao CERN e trajectos entre os varios pontos de visita:

plano geral

drive to Globe parking - Walk to IdeaSquare - Walk to Science Gateway

drive from Globe parking to AD - drive from AD to SC

drive from Globe parking to SC - drive fromSC to AD

4 Grupos A+B : Visit to the Antimatter Factory and the Extra Low Energy Antiproton (ELENA)

CERN's antimatter factory is the only place in the world where antiatoms are created on a daily basis.
It contains the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) and Extra Low Energy Antiproton (ELENA) machines which deliver antiprotons to various experiments where they are combined with antielectrons, forming antihydrogen atoms.
Antimatter, which was predicted by British physicist Paul Dirac in 1928, is made of antiparticles which have the same mass than their corresponding particles, but with an opposite electric charge.
When matter and antimatter come into contact, they annihilate, which makes producing and trapping antimatter quite challenging.

Speakers: Dr Patricia Tavares Coutinho Borges De Sousa (CERN), Diogo Gameiro Carvalho (CERN)

5 Grupos C+D : Visit to the Synchrocyclotron (SC)

The 600 MeV Synchrocyclotron (SC), built in 1957, was CERN’s first accelerator. It provided beams for CERN’s first experiments in particle and nuclear physics. In 1964, this machine started to concentrate on nuclear physics alone, leaving particle physics to the newer and more powerful Proton Synchrotron. The SC became a remarkably long-lived machine. In 1967, it started 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, ISOLDE was transferred to the Proton Synchrotron Booster, and the SC closed down after 33 years of service.
Visit limited to the first 24 people registered.

Speakers: Andre Henriques (CERN), Joao Antunes Pequenao (CERN)

17:45 Drive from AD to SC (groups A+B) or from SC to AD (Groups C+D)
