With the increase in the LHC centre-of-mass energy from 8 to 13 TeV, the production cross-section for hypothetical SUSY partners rises.
Squarks and gluinos would decay to quarks and the undetectable LSP, producing an excess of events with energetic jets and missing transverse momentum.
A little-known fact is that the last three days of Run 1 were reserved for relatively low-energy proton–proton collisions at 2.76 TeV.
The go-ahead to prepare a Comprehensive Design Report is received.
Since the first ATLAS results from LHC Run 2 were presented at this summer’s conferences (EPS-HEP 2015 and LHCP 2015) with an amount of data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approxima...
The first phase of collisions after the LHC restart earlier this year provided CMS with data at the novel energy of 13 TeV, enabling CMS to explore uncharted domains of physics. At the end of this ex...
Proton beams crossed inside each of the CMS and ATLAS detectors 20 million times a second during the 2012 LHC proton–proton run. However, the physics programme of CMS is based on only a small subse...
ATLAS has summarised 22 Run 1 searches, using more than 310,000 models to work out where the elusive SUSY particles might be hiding. The first run of the LHC taught us at least two significa...
There are now quite a few discrepancies, or “tensions”, between laboratory experiments and the predictions of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. All of them are of the 2...
After demonstrating a good understanding of the detector and observing most of the Standard Model particles using the first data of LHC Run 2 collected in July (CERN Courier September 2015 p8), the A...
