DAFNE, located at INFN’s Frascati National Laboratories, is a unique electron-positron collider, where matter and antimatter meet and annihilate, transforming into pure energy that gives rise to the events scientists study to probe the fundamental structure of matter. VIS has produced “Inside the Dafne Electron-Positron Collider”, an immersive 360° VR experience that takes viewers along the entire journey of the particles: from the linear accelerator, to the accumulator, and finally into the two main collider rings, where dipole and quadrupole magnets shape the beams toward the interaction point.

Combining rigorous scientific content with engaging cinematic 3D visuals, storytelling, and original sound design, the VR experience makes the invisible world of accelerator physics accessible and tangible, bringing audiences face to face with one of the technologies at the heart of fundamental research.
