CERN/Fermilab Dictionary

This is an informal dictionary to assist in translating between terms as they are used in the United States (Fermilab and sometimes Brookhaven, SLAC and LBNL) to the comparable CERN terms.

*Boy, those French, they have a different word for everything!

There exists an excellent Glossary of LHC Terminology at the CERN web site. The glossary begins on page 5 of this PDF file.
