This year, Anaheim, CA, was home of the famous APS April Meeting, this time held in conjunction with with the APS March Meeting (for better or for worse…). PPC presence was strong: undergraduate Nate Martinez presented his work studying and…
Organized in a co-production between Fermi- and Argonne Laboratory the Third Annual US FCC Workshop (now actually called Annual Higgs Factory FCC Workshop) was a smashing success. After our initial road trip to the First Annual US FCC Workshop at…
April 14, 2025 was the day when we had the first proton beams of 2025 through the LHC and leaving some recordable beam splashes! Oh, yeah … LHC and CMS are ready! A beam splash simply means that protons crash…
A muon, the heavier counterpart of the electron, serves as one of the clearest signatures of various unique and interesting processes at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Due to its small interaction cross-section with ordinary matter, a muon can pass…
… goes to the LHC experimental collaborations among which of course CMS. The website announces The 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics is awarded co-authors of publications based on CERN’s Large Hadron Collider Run-2 data released between 2015 and July…
Today, April 8 at 12:09pm the issue with the number 5000 has been created in our project management tool called Cleo (Clever Organizer), a local redmine installation. The issue No. 500 is a fairly standard ticket a new user asking…
The Feasibility Study of the Future Circular Collider at CERN, a major milestone in the largest fundamental science project ever in planning, has been completed on schedule on March 31, 2025. The report has resulted in three volumes: Volume 1:…
As we here from internal source: a joint Statement of Intent between Canada and CERN was signed, similar to the one that was signed with the US at the White House about a year ago. The CERN Council was informed…
Following the discovery of the Higgs boson with a mass of approximately 125 GeV by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider, extensive studies have confirmed its central role in the spontaneous breaking of electroweak symmetry in…
The first CMS week of 2025 took place during the first part of February, Monday 10th to Friday 14th. It was a rather busy week with a full agenda including a large number of plenary and parallel sessions. CMS is preparing the 2025…
