Abstract
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), located at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland, is the largest particle accelerator in the world. With this extraordinary machine, physics at the TeV scale is within human reach. It is a 27 km double ring located 100 m underground.
