        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.

        This year, join us in celebrating the World Teachers’ Day 2017 with a special event at the CERN Globe of Science and Innovation on 5 October.
        For the very first time, we will welcome Matt Parker to CERN. Matt is a well-known stand-up comedian and mathematics communicator, or as he likes to call himself ‘Standup Mathematician’. Matt switched from being a normal high-school maths teacher to a nomadic maths speaker, giving talks about maths in schools around the world. He will share his favourite methods for capturing the attention of teenagers and engaging them in mathematics.
        A panel of experts, moderated by Matt Parker, will take his cue to discuss what CERN does to empower teachers and to promote scientific education, especially within the CERN & Society programme and in the context of the United Nations’ 2030 agenda for Sustainable Development.
