Cern: The Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment

Curated by ACT

The Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment (CMS), an LHC experiment, detects muons, electrons and photons, provides momentum measurements, and, like ATLAS, is responsible for detecting the Higgs boson. This CERN website offers news about CMS, details about the experiment's design and purpose, and a timeline, starting in 1998, highlighting CMS construction. Also, be sure to view CMS photos, movies, presentations, webcams, brochures, and other multimedia and educational items.
