    A word from the EP Department Head – Autumn 2026

    Dear Colleagues, Autumn is transforming nature by giving it new colours, shortening daylight and changing the temperature. Similarly, the start of Long Shutdown 3 has transformed our experimental facilities into busy construction sites. The excitement of data taking has given way to eager teams of technicians, engineers and scientists dismantling, cleaning and refurbishing the areas…

    OLC-R / OLC-1 refurbishment in a Nutshell

    OLC-R / OLC-1 refurbishment in a Nutshell For Phase-2, CMS DAQ will undergo a major increase of its capacities to match HL-LHC performance and the related CMS physics program. Compared to the present situation (Run3), the post-trigger data throughput will increase from 2 Tb/s today to 50 Tb/s for Run4 and the processing power needed
