This brochure showcases the many applications of CERN technologies used in our everyday lives. Particle-physics research and CERN’s unique environment provide a fertile ground for innovations related to particle accelerators, detectors and computing which can benefit society at large, in sometimes surprising ways. In this brochure, the most significant examples of this phenomena are explored, from the fields of healthcare, environmental protection and monitoring, aerospace, safety and cultural heritage. We also explain how CERN-developed open-source digital technologies can be used for global challenges.

From CERN to Aerospace

Language: English
Aerospace and particle physics share many technical similarities in terms of operational environments. Both sectors need components capable of functioning in harsh radiation environments, extreme temperatures and high vacuum conditions. Moreover, they both need to be able to handle large amounts of data quickly and autonomously. Performed in orbit around the Earth to avoid atmospheric effects, fundamental physics missions in space have much in common with CERN’s underground experiments. Maximising the positive impact of its research on society is integral to CERN’s mission. Aerospace applications carry strong opportunities in areas such as human and robotic exploration, long-distance transportation, climate change and environment monitoring, disaster prevention, advanced telecommunication and geolocalisation.

Language: English
This report intends to present some of the statistics of the FP7 EU Projects CERN has been involved in. The key statistics are: • CERN has received funding in 87 projects and coordinated 36 of these. • The total budget for all FP7 projects CERN has taking part in is 692 million euro, 404 million from the European Commission and 288 million matched by the partners. • From all of these projects CERN received in total 111 million euro and provided matching funds of 93 million euro. • Partners located in CERN’s member and associate states received 281 million euro from the European Commission in projects where CERN is a partner. • In total CERN has collaborated with 526 partners through the projects, of these 73 partners are SMEs and 53 are larger companies. • Slightly more than 550 researchers will be trained through the FP7 Marie Curie projects that CERN is taking part in and more than half of those hosted at CERN.

Language: English
The high-energy physics community in general, and CERN in particular, is constantly looking for ways to do things faster, better and more accurately, as well as for opportunities to implement its innovations in society at large. Medipix, a family of successive generations of hybrid pixel detectors, has made the journey from experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to applications in places such as the International Space Station, classrooms, and medical devices.
