Actually no - within the CERN ring the particles travel through a hollowed out tunnel
steered by magnets - but these particular neutrinos were measured in Italy, approx 700
km away from the CERN accellerator. The neutrinos were created in collisions within
one of the CERN experiment chambers, and travelled through the earths crust on a
straight-line path from CERN to Italy.
Neutrinos from memory are not magnetic, and can't be guided by magnets, they fly off
in all directions as waste.
