    Measuring the strong coupling constant: from the LHC to FCC-ee

    Measuring the strong coupling constant: from the LHC to FCC-ee The latest advances in the measurement of the coupling of the strong interaction were discussed in a recent workshop on “High precision measurements of αs: from LHC to FCC-ee” held at CERN, 12-13 October 2015. The meeting brought together the leading experts in the field

    ​Carlo Rubbia: Muon Cooling at CERN

    ​Carlo Rubbia: Muon Cooling at CERN BROKEN IMAGE NOT MOVED (drupal url : https://ep-news.web.cern.ch//content/carlo-rubbia-muon-cooling-cern) In a talk at the CERN auditorium on 14 April Nobel laureate and Former DG Carlo Rubbia reviewed the case for a muon-antimuon (µ+µ–) collider. The interest in building a so-called "second-generation" Higgs factory that would allow better studying the properties

    FCC-he: A Renaissance of Deep Inelastic Scattering at CERN

    FCC-he: A Renaissance of Deep Inelastic Scattering at CERN There was a time when CERN was the Mecca of deep inelastic lepton-hadron scattering (DIS). Roughly 30-40 years ago, various muon and neutrino scattering experiments were pursued to develop the Quark-Parton Model of hadronic matter establishing Quantum Chromodynamics as the appropriate gauge field theory of strong

  • A future e+e- circular collider

    A future e+e- circular collider

    A future e+e- circular collider As discussed during the FCC kick-off meeting, there is more than one variety of FCC under study. Besides the long-term goal of a 100 TeV proton-proton collider, the study includes, as a first step, a 90-400 GeV high-luminosity e+e– machine, FCC-ee, a.k.a. TLEP,sensitive to new physics but not only at
