LHC restart delayed

A short circuit that had delayed the relaunch of the Large Hadron Collider has been remedied. Now the LHC is back on track for the initiation of Run 2.

In the near future the LHC will run at almost double its previous energy. This new energy frontier will allow researchers to probe new boundaries in our understanding of the fundamental structure of matter.
