@UVA postdoc Bryan Cardwell and his colleagues on #CMSexperiment are working on an ultra-precise timing detector for the #HiLumiLHC that will give scientists a new way to look for slow-moving massive particles like dark matter.

🗨️Let’s talk about the PPS (Precision Proton Spectrometer), one of the CMS sub-detectors.

Nicola is ready to drop 3 fun facts about this special detector. How many did you already know?

Do you want to learn more about PPS? We got you covered: youtu.be/WyuQaxvpnNM?...

From brainstorming sessions to hands-on coding, the #2ndNGTHackathon brought together more than 40 physicists, engineers, data scientists and other experts from #NextGenTruggers CMS Collaboration, ATLAS Collaboration to explore innovative ideas for the upgrade of the trigger systems for HiLumiLHC.

Celebrate European Researchers’ Night with us THIS FRIDAY by taking part in our virtual visit, live from the CMS experiment site at CERN!
And don't forget - your guides will be two CMS scientists who can answer any of your questions!
