(12.5.2011) Whenever you hear about CERN these days, it tends to be dominated by news about the Large Hadron Collider and its hunt for fundamental particles. But there are plenty of other experiments taking place at CERN, spanning a wide range of science.
One of them is the CLOUD experiment, designed to recreate processes in the atmosphere and their wider impact on Earth‘s climate. The Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets project is designed to investigate the possible influence of galactic cosmic rays on Earth‘s clouds and climate.
