The beauty, the top, and the mighty
The top quark is now a full grown adult – it’s been almost 30 years since its discovery at Fermilab!

Unveiling the tWZ process: where no one has ever looked before
In the thrilling world of particle physics, our mission at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is to explore the mysteries of the universe by conducting experiments and pushing the boundaries of the Standard Model (SM).

A new tri-boson process discovery
Bosons are elementary particles in the field of particle physics, distinguished by having a spin quantum number with an integer value.
-
Hunting for supersymmetry with tau leptons
The standard model (SM) of particle physics, is the most successful theory describing the behaviour of elementary particles and their interactions.
-
A fractal tree of quarks and gluons
Quarks and gluons are the elementary particles that make up protons and neutrons, which are in turn the building blocks of the nucleus of every atom.
-
Using top quarks to probe nature’s secrets
The standard model of particle physics (SM) is one of the most precise theories ever conceived, capable of predicting certain quantities with up to 14 digits of precision.
-
CMS observes four-top quark production
CMS observed the simultaneous production of four top quarks, one of the rarest physics processes ever observed at the LHC, opening the door to detailed searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM).
-
CMS observes a potential family of tetra-quark states composed only of charm quarks
For over two millennia, people have wondered about the diversity of the material world, asking questions like “what are things made of?”.

Fishing for dark matter using displaced muons
Dark matter is mysterious.

Looking for the invisible, literally!
Experimental particle physics is like a game of hide and seek.
