The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC

S. Chatrchyan, +3175 more
TL;DR: The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN as mentioned in this paper was designed to study proton-proton (and lead-lead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV (5.5 TeV nucleon-nucleon) and at luminosities up to 10(34)cm(-2)s(-1)
Journal ArticleDOI

The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part II: A performance study using observations of the Crab Nebula

Jelena Aleksić, +164 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the MAGIC-I camera and its trigger system were replaced with a new one for low and medium zenith angles to assess the key performance parameters of MAGIC stereo system for point-like sources with Crab Nebula-like spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

The TOTEM Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider

G. Anelli, +115 more
TL;DR: The TOTEM Experiment as discussed by the authors measured the total pp cross-section with the luminosity-independent method and studied elastic and diffractive scattering at the LHC using two tracking telescopes, T1 and T2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Virgo: a laser interferometer to detect gravitational waves

T. Accadia, +341 more
TL;DR: Virgo as discussed by the authors is a very large Michelson interferometer with 3 km-long arms, built at Cascina, near Pisa (Italy), with a detailed description of all its different elements is given.
Journal ArticleDOI

The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part I: The hardware improvements and the commissioning of the system

Jelena Aleksić, +169 more
TL;DR: The MAGIC telescopes as mentioned in this paper are two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) located on the Canary island of La Palma, Spain, which are designed to measure Cherennikov light from air showers initiated by gamma rays in the energy regime from around 50GeV to more than 50TeV.
