Z bosons produced in collisions of heavy ions have been observed for the first time by the CMS experiment at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC). CMS observed 10 events containing a distinctive candidate Z boson reconstructed from a pair of electrons…

The CMS Collaboration at CERN released today a paper entitled "Observation of Long-Range Near-Side Angular Correlations in Proton-Proton Collisions" that details signs of a new phenomenon in proton interactions. A study of "high multiplicity"…

For the past four months the LHC has been ramping-up the intensity of the beams, creating billions of 7 TeV proton-proton collisions. This has enabled CMS to study a variety of known physics from the Standard Model, including the "re-discovery" of…

The first 7 TeV (3.5 TeV + 3.5 TeV) collisions took place on 30th March 2010, starting around 1pm local (Geneva) time and lasting for about 3.5 hours. Read the CERN Press Release here. The CMS detector and its collaborators are all eagerly awaiting…

The CMS Collaboration has completed the most precise measurement to date of top-quark production in association with a photon Using the full Run 2 dataset of the LHC and advanced machine learning techniques, the CMS Collaboration has delivered the…

CMS sees evidence of the Upsilon meson decaying into two tau leptons for the first time at a hadron collider Beyond our best current understanding of particle physics, encapsulated in the standard model, various theoretical models predict the…
