The European science lab that houses the world's largest atom smasher is taking new steps that will limit its cooperation with Russian research institutions in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The governing body of the lab with 23 member states announced Friday that it will suspend participation in all scientific committees in Russia and neighboring Belarus. The European Organization for Nuclear Research, which is now known as the European Organization for Nuclear Research, had grappled with its response to the invasion because of the fact that nearly 7% of its 18,000 researchers are linked to Russian institutions. Russia's observer status at the organization was stripped after the council suspended new collaborations with Russia. The issue of whether to further sanction Russia became pressing because of the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, which is set to start its third-ever run next month. The machine propels particles through an underground, 17-mile ring of superconducting magnets, generating science that can help understand dark matter or the standard model of particle physics. Russian scientists are involved in multiple experiments. Under the new measures approved Friday, the organization will suspend all joint events with Russia and consider any new candidates from Russia to join the staff. The council decided to suspend all collaboration with the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, an international grouping of 19 member nations based in Dubna, Russia. Cuba, the Czech Republic, Poland, North Korea, and Vietnam are also part of the group. The impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is felt in the United States.
