The proposed Future Circular Collider (FCC) at CERN aims to continue the exploration of open questions in particle physics beyond the LHC and its high-luminosity upgrade in a staged research programme, integrating in sequence lepton (FCC-ee) and hadron (FCC-hh) collider programmes, and with the option of a hadron-electron collider (FCC-he), to achieve further understanding of the Standard...
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is undergoing an extensive upgrade program to prepare for the challenging conditions of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). A new timing detector in CMS will measure minimum ionizing particles (MIPs) with a time resolution of ~30-60 ps. The precision time information from this MIP timing detector (MTD) will bring...
Firstly, I'll briefly report the current activities of CERN Korea Theory Collaboration.
Then I'll discuss possible future directions for productive collaborations with CERN based on current status of high energy physics
and the composition of current/future theory community in Korea.
The topics include neutrino platforms, gbar, cosmology with gravitational waves, the 5th force and the axion...
The Korea-CMS team consists of around 120 researchers from 10 institutes in Korea. The team has been contributing to building the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) detector at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider). The CMS machine allows us to explore nature and solve many unanswered questions such as the Higgs mass, dark matter, and matter-antimatter symmetry, etc. The Korea-CMS is heavily involved in...
Next year marks the 70th anniversary of the CERN. From 1990’s, Korean researchers participated in CERN experiments individually from 1970’s and the government officially made a MoU to support group research at CERN in 1906. In this talk, the activity of the Korean ALICE experiment team (KoALICE) will be reviewed and the current status of the KoALICE group will be reported. Also the future...
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) is CERN's flagship proposal for a post-LHC accelerator facility. Similarly to the LEP/LHC sequence, it foresees the sequence of an e+e– collider (optimized for precision measurements of Higgs, EW and top quark properties), and a successive 100 TeV pp collider, both hosted in a new ~100km tunnel. A process is ongoing to assess its feasibility (from the...
