From the LHC to the FCC: The Next Frontier in Particle Physics

Across Europe and beyond, scientists and engineers are working together to explore the feasibility of the Future Circular Collider (FCC) — a next-generation particle collider that could become the world’s largest scientific instrument. The study poses bold questions: What new technologies and R&D are needed to build and operate such a collider sustainably? What answers could it reveal about the Higgs boson? And what new discoveries might it unlock? Visit our booth to dive into the science and technology behind this international effort, and discover how planning such a project is not only about particle physics, but also about innovation and global collaboration.

Visitors to our booth will be invited to step into the fascinating world of particle physics and playfully explore the boundaries of the Standard Model, while catching glimpses of what might lie beyond it. Along the way, they will discover some of the new technologies and R&D being developed to make such a facility possible, and learn how sustainability is a key part of the study. An Augmented Reality application will immerse them in the hidden secrets of the Universe, while conversations with scientists and engineers will reveal how this international effort combines curiosity, innovation, and global collaboration.
