The LHC provides CMS with millions of collisions each second, and a wealth of physics data is obtained from the proton-proton interactions. In order to record all these data for analyses, all CMS sub-detectors have to be performing optimally. If you…
The machine just announced going to Proton Physics today in the afternoon since ~5pm. The 25ns Machine Development has been postponed to Monday. Subsystems experts, please make sure that we are ready for physics and running fine. Cheers, RFMs…
The international physics masterclasses allow high-school students to spend a day at a research institute and analyse real data from high-energy physics experiments. Conducted under the aegis of the International Particle Physics Outreach Group (…
