Published on August 19, 2026

Last week’s coverage opened with several pieces following media visits to CERN. ABC Australia featured CERN in a report highlighting the work and contributions of Australian researchers to the Organisation. Blick published a feature on the proposed Future Circular Collider, following a media visit to the geological study in the Léman lake. 

In addition, RAI 1 included a part on neutrino research at CERN in their latest episode of Noos, l’avventura della conoscenza, showcasing the SND@LHC experiment in particular.

Media also covered the appointment of former CERN Director-General Fabiola Gianotti by the Swiss Federal Council as its delegate to the Geneva AI Summit, as reported by Le Temps.

Other important CERN-related news included an article in Qué examining the energy consumption of the LHC and the implications for the Organisation’s future accelerator programme. Techno-Science media also highlighted research using artificial intelligence to identify and analyse particles produced by the upcoming HL-LHC, illustrating the growing role of AI in particle physics.
