Behind The Scenes At CERN The European Organisation For Nuclear Research
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND - OCTOBER 12: A detailed view in the Clean Room of the ICARUS project detector with its new cryostat the cold box containing the detector and photomultipliers which is close to complete refurbishment at The European Organization for Nuclear Research commonly know as CERN on October 12, 2016 in Geneva, Switzerland. ICARUS cryostat moved from building 156 to building 185 and is now ready to host the detector. The ICARUS detector is in the the clean room and the two parts will be brought together in the coming weeks. The detector, now being refurbished at CERN, will be delivered to Fermilab where the detector will become part of an on-site suite of three experiments dedicated to studying neutrinos. All three detectors will be filled with liquid argon that enables the use of state-of-the-art time projection technology, drawing charged particles created in neutrino interactions toward planes of fine wires that can capture a 3-D image of the tracks those particles leave. Each detector will contribute different yet complementary results to the hunt for a fourth type of neutrino. (Photo by Dean Mouhtaropoulos/Getty Images)
