Introducing the LHC in the classroom: an overview of education resources available

Description

In the context of the recent re-start of CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the challenge presented by unidentified falling objects (UFOs), we seek to facilitate the introduction of high energy physics in the classroom. Therefore, this paper provides an overview of the LHC and its operation, highlighting existing education resources, and linking principal components of the LHC to topics in physics curricula.

Introduce the LHC in your classroom with the help of this paper, which links principal components of the LHC to topics in physics curricula.
