"Physics and the CMS Detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider"Roger Rusach , University of Minnesota [Host: Brad Cox]
ABSTRACT:
In 2007 a new proton-proton collider, the LHC, will turn on and a whole new
energy domain will become accessible to experiment. Indications of what we
might observe come from current measurements in experiments in high-energy
physics, astrophysics and cosmology. We will discuss what problems in
physics might be resolved with data from the LHC, describe how the detectors
work and what are the special challenges associated with building a detector
of the scale required for this energy region.
