Dear all, 

The press office team hopes you had a restful end of year and wishes you all the best for this new year!

Please find below the media monitoring report from 20 December 2021 to 2 January 2022. These press cuttings have been selected amongst 1225 articles identified by our media monitoring system. 

These weeks' selection includes an interview from Joachim Mnich for the German press agency (dpa) about the different challenges and expectations for the LHC's restart in 2022 that has been widely covered by German media outlets. On the same topics, there is also another interview given by Rende Steerenberg for the New Scientist. 

Following the visit of journalists from TV8 Mont-Blanc, France 3 Rhône-Alpes, and Pays Gessien, at Point 8, organised by the press office where Serge Claudet was representing CERN, two television reports and an article were published about Pays de Gex Énergies' smart grid project. Forskning.no also published an article about the ATLAS small wheels as a result of a media visit organised by the press office in December.

Other mentions concern, the partnership between the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and CERN regarding the Compact Muon Solenoid Operations Program, researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia taking part in the FCC feasibility studies, the virtual workshop "Knowing the ATLAS experiment of the LHC", the possibility of creating black holes with the LHC,The Standard Model and how the universe works.
