Having entered its phase II in early 2021, the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study is capitalizing on the work of the Conceptual Design Report (CDR), issued in 2019, to refine its results regarding the architecture of the cryogenic systems of both FCC-ee (lepton) and -hh (Hadron) machines, aiming at issuing a Feasibility Report, which shall serve as input for the next ESPP (European Strategy for Particle Physics) Update in 2026/2027. Specifically, for the cryogenic system, it means taking into consideration all the updates transmitted by stakeholders and impacting its general architecture, regarding the general accelerator layout, the ongoing work on superconducting radio-frequency cavities (SRF) and the MDI (Machine Detectors Interface) components design for the -ee machine.

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.
Diversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success.
