Seminario HEP: Michael Revering (Cambridge) – Estendere la portata dell'LHC a vite molto lunghe: il concetto di progettazione e lo stato attuale dell'esperimento ANUBIS

Traduzione in italiano…

Many beyond-the-standard model theories propose the existence of new ‘long-lived’ particles (LLPs) with macroscopic decay lengths that may be produced in high energy collisions at the LHC. While extensive searches for LLPs have been performed by existing LHC experiments such as ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb, their sensitivity to very long-lived models (ct>~10 m) is constrained by the physical size of the detectors. The proposed ANUBIS experiment is designed to significantly extend experimental sensitivity to these very long-lived models by instrumenting the ceiling of the ATLAS detector cavern with RP…
