Description

Beamline for Schools (BL4S) is a physics competition for high school students from all around the world organised at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, in Geneva, Switzerland, and DESY, the German Electron Synchrotron, in Hamburg, Germany. Teams of high school students can propose an experiment that they want to perform at a beamline, that is, a part of a particle accelerator. The teams that submit the three best proposals win a trip to CERN, DESY or MAMI to perform their experiments at a fully-equipped beamline.

Here, we will introduce the competition as held in 2025 and set the stage for the teams' presentations in the following.
