Chocolate, Fondue, and Particle Physics: Life at the Large Hadron Collider
The Large Hadron Collider, located at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, is the biggest particle collider in the world. Thanks to the efforts of thousands of scientists, engineers, grad students, and undergrads, the experiments on the LHC have already opened the door into an exciting new era of particle physics. But what do all these people actually do all day? How do we go from proton collisions to papers? Come learn about a day in the life of a grad student at CERN.
