The CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Participation in the CMS experiment at the LHC particle collider at CERN provides access to the forefront of this international research. With our recent discovery of the Higgs particle, all elementary particles of the Standard Model of particle physics are now observed. We ...
New physics in interplay with top quarks: bump hunting in topquark-pair production with two additional quarks at the CMS experiment Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Collider, the last missing particle as predicted by the standard model
(SM) of particle physics was discovered. Nevertheless, there are
several open questions for which the SM lacks a suitable
explanation. An example is the question as to why the top quark is
significantly heavier than all other known elementary particles of the
SM. Many ...

Measurement of Higgs boson decays to charm quark antiquark pairs in association with top quark antiquark pair production at the CMS experiment. Ghent University
The discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012 completed the standard model (SM) of particle physics. With the addition of the Higgs boson the SM becomes one of the most successful theories to date, as such its predictions agree with the experimental data at the energy scales probed so far remarkably well. On the other hand there exist several observed phenomena in nature, such as dark matter, matter antimatter ...

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.
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 ...
