BERLIN — The world's biggest particle accelerator is back in action after a two-year shutdown and upgrade, embarking on a new mission that scientists hope could give them a look into the unseen dark universe.
Scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, on Sunday shot two particle beams through the Large Hadron Collider's 27-kilometer (16.8-mile) tunnel, beneath the Swiss-French border near Geneva.
CERN wrote on its website that "the startup is complete!"
Beam 1, the second to circulate, is successfully through all sectors of the LHC! Startup complete! #RestartLHC http://ift.tt/1HBMjvi
