antimatter
Not anti-matter. Likewise antiparticle, antihydrogen, antineutrino, etc.
But: anti-ion.
See particles
spelling
beam line
Two words, except in the title of CERN's competition for high-school students, Beamline for Schools (BL4S) – capital "B" and capital "S".
centimetre
Not centimeter. See units.
centre or center?
Use the American spelling only for American organisations and place names:
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Rockefeller Center
Otherwise, stick to centre:
The Sun is at the centre of our Solar System.
Cherenkov radiation
Not Cerenkov. Though Cherenkov is a somewhat clumsy anglicisation of the original Russian, the "Ch" ensures unambiguous pronunciation.
Collide @ CERN
Capital C. The "at" sign in the name can sometimes cause problems with Drupal text formats. To get around this, whenever Collide @ CERN appears in text, separate the @ from the text with spaces.
Collide @ CERN is a three-year artist’s residency programme at CERN.
