SAFETY
CERN operates an extensive park of cryogenic refrigeration and distribution systems and CERN is about to terminate an extremely demanding project with the putting into service of the LHC. There is not only a large variety of cryogenic systems, but there are also many particularities due to the installation conditions comprising surface and underground locations. Due to the often quite...

SAFETY
The operation of particle physics calorimeters using large quantities of liquid krypton or liquid argon in underground areas creates specific safety risks because of conflicting requirements. On one hand the walls of the cryostats, including electrical feedthroughs, must be as thin as possible to minimize the interaction of the particles passing through the structure, while on the other hand...
