NA64 experiment is one of the several experiments at CERN's Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) particle collider searching for dark sector particles. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is a fixed target experiment in which an electron beam of energy between 100-150 GeV, strikes fixed atomic nuclei.
The 12 founding member states of CERN in 1954. [13]The convention establishing CERN [14] was ratified on 29 September 1954 by 12 countries in Western Europe. [15] The acronym CERN originally represented the French words for Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire ('European Council for Nuclear Research'), which was a provisional council for building the laboratory, established by 12 ...
One of the last steps in the process is to submit the proposal to an appropriate CERN Scientific Committee. The committees will discuss the proposal and then pass on their recommendations to the Research Board (previously the Nuclear Physics Research Committee) for the final decision. Proposals approved become part of the CERN experimental ...
CERN has been putting together plans for the development of an entirely new atom smasher, one so big it would dwarf the organization's existing Large Hadron Collider. The latter is part of a ...
The experiment is designed to conduct precision tests of the Standard Model by studying rare decays of charged kaons.The principal goal, for which the design has been optimized, is the measurement of the rate of the ultra-rare decay K + → π + + ν + ν with a precision of 10%, by detecting about 100 decay candidates with low background.
AWAKE's 10-metre-long plasma cell developed by the Max Planck Institute for Physics. The AWAKE (Advanced WAKEfield Experiment) facility at CERN is a proof-of-principle experiment, which investigates wakefield plasma acceleration using a proton bunch as a driver, a world-wide first.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) will end cooperation with up to 500 scientists affiliated with Russian institutions, it said on Monday, because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The clocks at CERN and LNGS had to be in sync, and for this the researchers used high-quality GPS receivers, backed up with atomic clocks, at both places. This system timestamped both the proton pulse and the detected neutrinos to a claimed accuracy of 2.3 nanoseconds. But the timestamp could not be read like a clock.
