The Super Proton Synchrotron
(
  • Started: Jun 17, 1976,
  • Completed: 9999
)
The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is the second-largest machine in CERN’s accelerator complex. Measuring nearly 7 kilometres in circumference, it takes particles from the Proton Synchrotron and accelerates them to provide beams for the Large Hadron Collider, the NA61/SHINE and NA62 experiments, the COMPASS experiment. It will also soon feed the AWAKE expriment which aims to test new techniques for accelerating particles.
