The June issue of the Danish magazine KVANT is devoted to CERN’s 60th anniversary

The June issue of the Danish magazine KVANT is devoted to CERN’s 60th anniversary. KVANT is a quarterly magazine published by the Danish Physical Society, Astronomical Society, Geophysical Society and Society for the Dissemination of natural Science. It usually comprises a collection of short articles written by Danish scientists that are of interest to teachers and to especially interested students in high schools and higher-education institutions.

 

The current issue of KVANT contains an introduction to CERN and five articles relating directly to the Laboratory and the physics of the LHC, including a historical overview, specific papers on the discovery of the Higgs boson and on the use of amplitude calculation in quantum field calculations relevant at the LHC, a report on possible future accelerators and an account of a school visit to CERN.

 

Written in Danish, this issue has brought the CERN60 event into the minds of many people in Denmark who have an interest in science.
