MoEDAL-experiment at CERN searches for traces of magnetic monopoles by utilizing the strongest known magnetic fields produced in lead-lead collisions at LHC
(Image: James Pinfold, MoEDAL Collaboration) Magnetic monopoles are hypothetical fundamental particles that are predicted by several theories but have never been detected. MoEDAL experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is designed to search for highly ionizing avatars of new physics, such as magnetic monopoles. In recent paper published in Nature, MoEDAL collaboration presents results on...Continue reading→

ALICE IS ”FIT” FOR LHC RUN 3
(Photo CERN) The new Fast Interaction Trigger (FIT) completed the installation of new subdetectors in ALICE LS2 activities. The main contribution of HIP scientists to the ALICE upgrade is focused on FIT. The FIT project was initiated and is led by Wladyslaw Trzaska from Jyväskylä University with other researchers from HIP and Jyväskylä playing critical...Continue reading→
