Note(s) : Notes bibliogr.
""Big" science and advanced technology are known to cross-fertilize. This book emphasizes
the interplay between particle physics and technology at CERN that has led to breakthroughs
in both research and technology over the laboratory's first 60 years. The innovations,
often the work of individuals or by small teams, are illustrated with highlights describing
selected technologies from the domains of accelerators and detectors. The book also
presents the framework and conditions prevailing at CERN that enabled spectacular
advances in technology and contributed to propel the European organization into the
league of leading research laboratories in the world. While the book is specifically
aimed at providing information for the technically interested general public, more
expert readers may also appreciate the broad variety of subjects presented. Ample
references are given for those who wish to further explore a given topic"
