Beam Gas Curtain: a new instrument for LHC Run 3

The Large Hadron Collider #LHC will be restarted on 27 March 2023 following its year-end technical stop.

After ten years of development, the BGC will start taking data on the LHC’s proton beam this year during Run 3. It will provide precise 2D images of the alignment of the proton beams, making data taking more precise. Watch an animation of how the BGC works.
