Commissioning the CERN IT Agile Infrastructure with experiment workloads

πνν̄ experiment at CERN

The P326 proposal for an experiment to measure the branching ratio of the very rare kaon decay K + → π + ν ¯ ν at the CERN SPS is described. The proposed experiment aims to collect about 80 K + → π + ν ¯ ν events with a 10% of background in two years of data taking. The status of the project, the R&D and the future perspectives for the experiment are discussed.

The Neutron_time of Flight Facility at Cern: First Commissioning Results

The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and leadlead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV (5.5 TeV nucleon-nucleon) and at luminosities up to 1034 cm−2s−1 (1027 cm−2s−1). At the core of the CMS detector sits a high-magneticfield and large-bore superconducting sol...

The WA56 Experiment at CERN: How Does It Look in the Unified Picture for Hadron Spectra?

In this note we demonstrate how the experimental material taken from WA56 Experiment at CERN looks in the recently developed unified picture for hadron spectra. Our analysis shows that baryonium states observed in the WA56 Experiment are the states living in the corresponding KK tower built in according to the earlier established general, physical law. There were several experiments made with t...

Recent results from the CERN NA60 experiment

NA60 is a CERN SPS experiment that studied dimuon production in In-In collisions at 158 A·GeV per nucleon. More recently proton nucleus collisions have also been investigated in order to provide a reference for heavy ion studies. Some of the most important results obtained by the experiment are the first measurement of the ρ spectral function in nuclear collision and the study of its medium-ind...
