ATLAS experiment

ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus) is one of the seven particle detector experiments constructed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a particle accelerator at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research) in Switzerland. The experiment is designed to take advantage of the unprecedented energy available at the LHC and observe phenomena that involve highly massive particles which were not observable using earlier lower-energy accelerators.

Microcosm (CERN)

Microcosm is a museum of particle physics located at CERN in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland, near the town of Meyrin. It covers a broad range of particle physics topics, as well as the entire history of CERN. Exhibits include: explanations of the purpose of CERN and particle physics research in general.

LHCb

LHCb (standing for "Large Hadron Collider beauty") is one of seven particle physics detector experiments collecting data at the Large Hadron Collider accelerator at CERN. LHCb is a specialized b-physics experiment, that is measuring the parameters of CP violation in the interactions of b-hadrons (heavy particles containing a bottom quark). Such studies can help to explain the Matter-Antimatter asymmetry of the Universe.

LHCf

The LHCf ("Large Hadron Collider forward") is a special-purpose Large Hadron Collider experiment for astroparticle physics, and one of seven detectors in the LHC accelerator at CERN. The other six are: ATLAS, ALICE, CMS, MoEDAL, TOTEM, and LHCb. LHCf is designed to study the particles generated in the "forward" region of collisions, those almost directly in line with the colliding proton beams. It therefore consists of two detectors, 140 m on either side of the interaction point.

European University

The European University (EU) is a multi-campus business school, established in 1973 in Antwerp (Belgium) and in 1982 in Brussels (Belgium) by Dean Dominique Jozeau, with headquarters in Switzerland. It operates campuses in Switzerland, Spain, Germany, and the United Kingdom, with an executive facility in Yvorne, Switzerland. European University's Spain campus was ranked at 52 out of 67 European business schools in the 2010 Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) rankings.
