Last Friday, 26 June, the Press Office organised a media visit together with the HL-LHC, ATLAS and CMS teams. Several Geneva-based journalists and news agencies attended, and in the days following the visit, HiLumi and LS3 were covered in over 25 countries, generating more than 115 articles. 

Following our press release on 24 June, the new study from CLOUD experiment about marine aerosol particles was also covered. 

Interviews published last week include El Español featuring Mar Capeáns, and SFR (Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen) podcast with Ben Segal on the history of the internet in Switzerland. 

François Englert's passing was widely covered in the media, with many outlets reflecting on his life and contributions to physics. 

In addition, there has been considerable media attention on Elon Musk’s interest in antimatter research and CERN’s role in it.
