A world map of scientific collaboration.
The Large Hadron Collider is the current poster child for international collaborations in the world of high energy physics, but it’s hardly the first installation to require the resources of multiple laboratories, institutions, or even countries. High energy physics—whether pursued using active particle smashers like Babar, passive detectors like Ice Cube. or out-of-this-world telescopes like XMM-Newton – is an expensive business. Each of these projects required multi-national, multi-institutional, multi-organizational teams to plan them, build them, run them, and analyze the data.
