ALICE (acronym for A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is one of the seven detectors or experiments located alongside the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, Geneva (Switzerland). Indissoluble has designed and built the exhibition of the information point of ALICE, located at the access to the detector.
To accommodate this exhibition, a container has been created to locate a 1: 1 scale reproduction of the central part of ALICE. Onto this model, a seven minute videomapping is projected, trying to respond questions like what is matter and where does it come from, by traveling back to the origin of the universe. It explains how CERN reproduces the conditions of the Big Bang and analyzes the results that are further studied by hundreds of investigators around the world.
ALICE is part of the most important particle physics laboratory in the world, CERN, located near Geneva, at the French-Swiss border. There, they have particle accelerators that provoque high speed collisions in order to study the origin of the universe, its composition and its evolution. To analyze all this phenomena, some detectors capture the data produced by the accelerators and interpret them.
The new exhibition is located into a large red container, located in the same space occupied by the previous exhibition and over the detector but at ground level. The container allows a closed environment free of light and acoustic contamination.
