The last beam tests before LS3 boost FCC-ee detector technologies
The last beam tests before LS3 boost FCC-ee detector technologies by Hector Garcia Morales (CERN, FCC-PED group) In one of the last opportunities to test detector prototypes before CERN’s accelerator complex enters Long Shutdown 3, a beam test campaign brought together different teams from across the world to test FCC-ee detector technologies. To date, six

Scintillation light at the end of the tunnel
Scintillation light at the end of the tunnel The LHC Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) is approaching in giant steps and with it the date for the installation of the LHCb upgrade detectors. A large SciFi tracker will replace the current downstream trackers SciFi stands for scintillating fibre and means that the fibres will produce tiny
