Description
FASER is designed to discover dark photons, axion-like particles, and other light and very weakly-interacting particles that are produced in the far-forward region, outside the acceptance of the larger LHC detectors. The experiment has been successfully constructed and installed and started taking data with the beginning of Run 3 of the LHC. This talk will present FASER’s physics prospects, detector design, current status, and first collision data.
