[2] The project's computing power is utilized by physicists at CERN in support of the Large Hadron Collider and other experimental particle accelerators.

[3] The project is run with the help of over 1,260 active volunteer users contributing more than 3,000 computers processing at a combined 52 teraFLOPS as of September 2024[update].

The application went public, with a 5000 user limit, on September 29 to commemorate CERN's 50th anniversary.

[citation needed] SixTrack was developed by Frank Schmidt of the CERN Accelerators and Beams Department and produces results that are essential for verifying the long term stability of the high energy particles in the LHC.

[8] The Test4Theory application allows volunteers to run simulations of high energy particle collisions on their home computers.
