The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, a key component of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, played a pivotal role in verifying the existence of the Higgs Boson particle in collaboration with the ATLAS experiment in 2012.
As we ponder the achievements of this groundbreaking machine, CMS physicist Kathryn Coldham will help us explore its contemporary applications, as more than 5000 researchers worldwide utilise this leading-edge detector to unravel the hidden mysteries of our Universe at its tiniest scale.
In this talk, Kathryn will delve into the experiment's rich history, shedding light on the significant discoveries it has facilitated. She'll offer insights into the future of this remarkable endeavour as the LHC pushes the boundaries by colliding particles at unprecedented energy levels. Join us for a glimpse into the forefront of particle physics through the unique perspective of one of its leading researchers.
