As part of the GÉANT workshop on Time and Frequency Transfer, SURF visited CERN in Geneva, home to the LHC particle accelerator. During the visit, there was a unique opportunity to explore the ELENA experiment, where researchers focus on decelerating created antimatter.

In addition, SURF is currently rolling out the SURFtime&frequency pilot service. This Dutch TFT network, based on the White Rabbit protocol, will support scientific use cases from institutions such as Delft University of Technology, Nikhef (the National Institute for Subatomic Physics), the European Space Agency (ESA), ASTRON, and many others.
