Other priorities include: upgrading the LHC, which shut down in February for two years to boost its energies from 7 TeV to 14 TeV; plans to build an International Linear Collider in Japan, to
collide beams of electrons and positrons as a complement to the LHC's proton findings; and a major US project to exploit high - intensity neutrino beams generated at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois.

To be built on the campus
of the University
of Rome Tor Vergata on the outskirts
of the city, SuperB will accelerate
beams of electrons and positrons inside two 1.2 - kilometer - circumference rings and study the decay
of particles such as B mesons and tau leptons that are produced when the
beams collide.
The protons
collided with 900 billion
electron volts
of energy (900 GeV), with 450 GeV supplied by each
beam.
The LHC is now
colliding beams of protons at energies
of 13 trillion
electron volts.
For the first time, RHIC is running at a record energy
of 500 giga -
electron volts (GeV) per collision, more than double the previous runs in which polarized proton
beams collided at 200 GeV.
