Summary
CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator, has been switched off after its final physics run to begin Long Shutdown 3 (LS3). This major maintenance and upgrade program will prepare the facility for the High-Luminosity LHC (HiLumi LHC), the next phase in fundamental physics exploration. The LHC has been operational since September 2008, pushing the frontiers of science.
