https://phys.org/news/2018-06-cern-major-reap-atom-smasher.html
CERN says the upgrade is expected to produce greater data starting in 2026. They say the collider ringing the French-Swiss border near Geneva has worked well since operations began in 2010.
CERN, perhaps most famous for confirming the subatomic Higgs boson six years ago, says the budget for the High-Luminosity LHC is about $950 million.
