Contribution to the design and construction of a detector for the CMS experiment at the Large HAdron Collider (LHC) at CERN Ghent University
Contribution of the Gent research group "Experimental Particle Physics" to the construction of the CMS-detector at the LHC-accelerator at CERN.
R & D for a high luminosity detector for the CMS experiment at the LHC Vrije Universiteit Brussel
R&D towards a High Rate Particle Detector for the CMS Experiment at the LHC Ghent University
In 2009, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s most powerful accelerator became operational,
producing mainly proton-proton collisions at multi-TeV center-of-mass energies. This allows
experiments, such as the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS), to explore the so-far uncharted physics at
this energy scale. One of the, in the meantime world-famous results of the first LHC physics run that
recently ...
Study of proton-proton interactions at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN Ghent University
With the imminent start of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva (Switzerland) high energy
particle physics is about to enter a new and exciting era. The LHC is a proton-proton collider with an
unprecedented center-of-mass energy and design luminosity up to 14 TeV and 1034 cm-2s-1 respectively. It is
expected that this machine will lead to discoveries of new particles such as the Brout-Englert-Higgs boson and ...

Contribution to the completion of the forward Muon RCP detection system for the CMS experiment at the LHC at CERN Ghent University
Participation of UA, UGent and VUB in the CERN CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) at CERN Ghent University
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is a general-purpose detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It has a broad physics programme ranging from studying the Standard Model (including the Higgs boson) to searching for extra dimensions and particles that could make up dark matter. Although it has the same scientific goals as the ATLAS experiment, it uses different technical solutions and a different magnet-system design.
The CMS ...
