Swiss Scientists Release Research Data From Particle Collider



The first data to be released on the Open Data Portal will be from the LHC's Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, pictured here. The CMS team will release data three years after it has been collected, to give those on the team time to analyse the data before others get their hands on it.
