Future Circular Collider (FCC)
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) is an ambitious project undertaken by CERN to succeed the Large Hadron Collider. Its primary goal is to explore particle physics at much higher energies and intensities than its predecessor. The FCC consists of two main components: the electron-positron collider (FCC-ee) and the hadron collider (FCC-hh). The construction is planned to start post-2035, with the first stage of the collider operational after 2045 and the second stage in the 2070s. The project aims to extend the existing infrastructure’s life and deepen our understanding of the Universe. The FCC faces challenges such as high construction costs, energy consumption, and political and international cooperation hurdles.
