- CMS Group Page
The CMS Detector studies high energy proton-proton collisions produced by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The detector is designed to search for new fundamental particles, and measure the properties of the particles in the Standard Model. In 2012, we discovered the Higgs boson, and since then, have been looking for the next hints of new physics. - Neutron Oscillation Physics Working Group
our experimental group is committed to the search for beyond Standard Model processes of fundamental importance to understanding the nature of universe and some of its most beautiful broken symmetries. - Quantum Entanglement Science and Technology (QUEST) Group
The QUEST Group is exploring the bizarre world of quantum mechanics. Its properties, such as superposition, coherence, entanglement, teleportation, etc., have given rise to various paradoxes (Schrodinger’s cat, the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, etc.).
