Articles to read on the Engineering of the LHC

Can anyone recommend some articles or papers I could read about the engineering of the LHC? I am currently studying A-levels so my engineering knowledge is very rudimentary but I want to learn more.

Anxiety about LHC and the experiments

Hello! I’m 14 and suffer from anxiety and panic attacks, in the last few days I’ve been having a lot of anxiety because of some things that are going around on social medias, saying that LHC will create a black hole that will end the world, I’m not worried about the other conspiracy theories (such as shifting timelines, etc…) but the fact that there actually IS a possibility that’s a black hole could be created at LHC is worrying me, I’ve done some research and some people agree with the fact that it’s dangerous and some don’t.

Another question, I’ve seen that now LHC is running at 13.6TeV (6.8TeV per beam I think) has it always run at this level or is it a new thing?
