The EDF group conducts international experimental and theoretical research on fundamental particles and interactions. This is done on the one hand using particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The EDF group participates in the partnership that built and operates the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector. Collaborators study high-energy collisions between protons and heavy ions, with specific attention to processes ...
