Introducing the Future Circular Collider (FCC) into Secondary Classrooms
Cid-Vidal, Xabier; Cid, Ramon; Cliff, Harry Victor
Physics Teacher, v59 n3 p189-191 Mar 2021
This article presents some simple calculations related to the Future Circular Collider (FCC), which is being studied at CERN as a potential future replacement for the world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The aim of this article is to bring particle physics into secondary school classrooms using the physics of the FCC. This article presents some methods to calculate some of the accelerator's important parameters. In this way, it is possible to explore a range of physical concepts and to introduce one of the most relevant research projects in science today.
