ATLAS detector module
ATLAS detector module under construction. ATLAS is a detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the European particle physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. ATLAS, the size of a 5- storey building, is being built around part of the 27-kilometre-long underground ring of the LHC. The LHC will accelerate proton beams to collide in the space seen. The collision energy will create new particles whose decay products radiate out through the detector layers. Here, a yellow support cradle holds the Barrel Liquid Argon Calorimeter that can detect photon and electron energies. It is thought that ATLAS will detect the Higgs particle when the LHC starts operating in 2007

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the construction of the ATLAS detector module, a remarkable technological feat at the forefront of particle physics research. Located at CERN, the European particle physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland, ATLAS is an integral part of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 27-kilometre-long underground ring designed to accelerate proton beams for collision experiments. In this image, we witness a male technician diligently assembling a crucial component of ATLAS - the Barrel Liquid Argon Calorimeter. This yellow support cradle holds immense importance as it enables the detection and measurement of photon and electron energies within the detector layers. The sheer scale of ATLAS is awe-inspiring; its colossal size comparable to that of a 5-storey building. As protons collide in this vast space, new particles are generated with their decay products radiating out through various layers within ATLAS. Scientists anticipate that these collisions will lead to groundbreaking discoveries such as detecting elusive particles like Higgs boson. With its advanced technology and intricate assembly process captured in this photograph by Science Photo Library, we catch a glimpse into humanity's relentless pursuit of unraveling fundamental mysteries about our universe. The completion and operation of ATLAS in 2007 marked an exciting milestone for scientific exploration at CERN's cutting-edge facility.
