in beam-dump mode at the 400 GeV CERN SPS accelerator to search for feebly interacting GeV-scale particles
and to perform measurements in neutrino physics. CERN is uniquely suited for this programme owing to the proton
energy and yield available at the SPS. In March 2024 the... -

We will report the status of the milliQan experiment at CERN. The milliQan "bar" detector was completed in June 2023 and has been taking physics data since then. The milliQan "slab" detector was completed in Fall of 2024 and is being commissioned. We will give an update on the readiness of the slab detectorfor physics data taking. Finally, we will present first physics results on the search...

The Forward Physics Facility (FPF) is a proposal developed to exploit the unique scientific potential made possible by the intense hadron beams produced in the far-forward direction at the high luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Housed in a well-shielded cavern 627 m from the LHC interactions, the facility will enable a broad and deep scientific programme which will greatly extend the physics capability...

The FORMOSA detector at the proposed Forward Physics Facility is a scintillator-based experiment designed to search for signatures of "millicharged particles" produced in the forward region of the LHC. This talk will cover the challenges and impressive sensitivity of the FORMOSA detector, expected to extend current limits by over an order of magnitude. A pathfinder experiment, the FORMOSA...
