In November 2018 the proton-proton running of the LHC Run 2 ended. The data collected in 2018 is the largest sample ever collected at the LHC. Just under three months after the final proton proton collisions were recorded, the CMS collaboration…
The top quark is the heaviest particle in the standard model, and since its discovery in 1995 at the Tevatron collider at Fermilab, its study has become prominent in furthering our understanding of fundamental physics. At the Large Hadron Collider,…
The CMS experiment has performed a new search for Charge-Parity violation in Higgs boson decays to tau leptons, shedding light on the origin of matter. Since its discovery in 2012, the Higgs boson has helped scientists explore some of the Universe’…
For the first time ever, the CMS experiment has designed a dedicated analysis using parametrised machine learning to look for new dark particles that don’t socialize with Standard Model fermions, one of them being a favourite candidate in 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…
