What the eta meson does when no one’s looking
The amount of data that CMS has collected so far is truly astounding, thanks to the very large number of proton-proton collisions that the LHC has provided, over more than a decade, and to the large rate of events that CMS can record.

A new way to produce top quarks
The CMS collaboration has seen evidence of a rare mechanism to produce four top quarks.

Exit through the microscopic gift shop
Imagine you are at a museum.

Measuring the Higgs boson decay to WW is 90% physics. The other half is teamwork!
It was a bit more than 10 years ago that together with our colleagues from the ATLAS experiment, we at CMS announced the discovery of this new (and quite amazing) particle.

Using AI to Measure What Was Once Thought Impossible
While experimental results at the LHC continue to show good agreement with the standard model (SM), which is currently the best theory of fundamental particle interactions, the CMS physicists continue to turn up the heat on the SM.

Symmetric or not? That’s the question!
The heaviest known particle, the top quark, is one of our main gateways to search for new phenomena that are not addressed by our existing knowledge, the standard model of particle physics (SM), either through precision measurements of the top quark’s properties or by considering it as a decay product of (never seen before) heavier…

Hunting for new particles with light from the Higgs boson
Have you heard of vector-like quarks?

New study of rare B meson decays to two muons
Rare events, such as a total solar eclipse or a supernova explosion, are fascinating and stimulate our imagination.

Jet cones with top flavour
CMS has developed a new method to measure the properties of the top quark with high precision.
