Of the almost 47’000 particle accelerators in operation around the world, only 6% are destined for research (0.5% for particle physics). The remaining 94% of accelerators worldwide are built for medical and industrial applications.
The CERN Accelerator School holds training courses on accelerator physics and associated technologies at different levels for physicists, engineers, technicians and students. The courses take place in different member states of CERN and consist of a programme of lectures and tutorials spread over a period of one to two weeks.
We welcome participants from all countries world-wide!
