Due to the official LHC Inauguration and all the important people that want to join this event (beside me ;) nothing works a usual!
All roads between the two CERN sites will be closed, everybody will be put under a security check based on airport standards and has to carry his/her CERN ID card and passport or personal ID card … the the gates will be closed and we have take the back entrance through the vineyards …
And of course the bus stops two stations earlier this day!

Weltmaschine
Today the Weltmaschine exhibition starts in Berlin!
Its supposed to be a very nice exhibition on the LHC and the connected experiments such as ATLAS. There’s physicists from all over Germany coming to the Bundestag Subway Station in Berlin to explain the physics and more to the visitors.
ATLAS Control Room
Woohoo … since today I have access rights to the ATLAS Control Room!
Actually nothing too special … but anyway!
Tomorrow I’ll have my first part of the training for the Pixel shifts that I am supposed to take in the near future.
Excitement!!!<
LHC Inauguration
Just got my invitation for the Official LHC Inauguration on October 21st this year …
The going to be quite a large number of people around on this day.
And apparently Mr. Molecular Cuisine, Ettore Bocchia, will be responsible for the food that evening while Frans Lanting and his music and media show ORIGINS (adapted from the LIFE show) will entertain the crowd … which by quite a fraction will consist of VIPs from all around the world! … Very much looking forward to it!
First impressions from CERN
Well the first two weeks (with a little break though) are already over …
I am slowly settling in Geneva and at CERN … quite a few new things that came up during these weeks … and quite some work, man! But its cool … ;)
Here’s two pictures of the Globe in yesterday’s fine Geneva morning fog and of my office (I sit on the left side) at CERN. Btw the weather got really nice later the day … it often starts shitty like this …
