.cern is a Brand TLD being proposed in ICANN's New gTLD Program. The applicant is European Organization for Nuclear Research ("CERN").[1]
Application Details
The following is excerpted from the applicant's response to question #18:
'The Applicant, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), is an intergovernmental organization situated across the French-Swiss border near Geneva. It is one of the world’s largest and most respected centers for scientific research in the field of fundamental physics. CERN has 20 Member States (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United- Kingdom), one Candidate State for accession (Romania) and two Associate Members in the pre-stage to Membership (Israel and Serbia). Other countries are also involved, as some 10,000 scientists from around the world come to CERN for their research. They represent 608 universities and 113 nationalities. The mission of CERN is to enable international collaboration in the field of high-energy physics. To this end, CERN designs, builds and operates particle accelerators and the associated experimental areas, as well as connected information technology, administrative and industrial services. CERN’s flagship project, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), is producing unprecedented physics results.
..
Initially, the .CERN TLD will be a single-registrant TLD: only CERN will be eligible to register domain names. In due course, should the Applicant decide to open registration to certain third parties, the Applicant will organize the registry operation for.CERN in such a manner that it will avoid multiple applications for a particular domain name."[2]
