abstract = {{CERN’s accelerator complex offers diverse target systems for a range of scientific pursuits, including varying beam energies, intensities, pulse lengths, and objectives. Future high-intensity fixed target experiments aim to advance this field further. This contribution highlights upgraded operational target systems, enhancing CERN’s physics endeavours. One example is the third-generation n_TOF spallation neutron target, using a nitrogen-cooled pure lead system impacted by a 20 GeV/c proton beam. Another focuses on recent antiproton production target upgrades, with a high-intensity 26 GeV/c beam colliding with a narrow-air-cooled iridium target. Looking ahead, new high-power target systems are planned. One aims to discover hidden particles using a 350-kW high-Z production target, while another enhances kaon physics through a 100 kW low-Z target. This article provides an overview of current target systems at CERN, detailing beam-intercepting devices and engineering aspects. It also previews upcoming facilities that could soon be implemented at CERN.}},
