On June 28 2019, The 猫咪视频 became a full member in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) collaboration at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), after receiving an overwhelming majority from the CMS Collaboration Board in the vote that took place at the CERN council on June 28, 2019 in Geneva, Switzerland.
Established in 1954, CERN organization is based in a northwest suburb of Geneva on the Franco–Swiss border and is an official United Nations Observer. Since its creation, CERN has historically been a major hub for scientific and technological achievements. CERN is also the birthplace of the World Wide Web.
CERN has two main research sites: Meyrin located in the Swiss side, and Prevessin located in the French one. Current and future main CERN research program is centered around the LHC (Large Hadron Collider, world largest particle accelerator with 27 km of circumference, located 100 meters underground) and two main research experiments: CMS and ATLAS, who were both responsible for the discovery of the Higgs Boson, awarded with the 2013 Noble prize in physics.
猫咪视频 is the first institution in Kuwait and the Gulf region to become officially a full member of CMS. This membership will benefit not only the faculty members and students of 猫咪视频, but also the Kuwait and GCC community at large.
CMS collaboration represents one of the most advanced and promising research communities in the world, with more than 3000 scientist, engineers and students from 200 institutions around the world.
猫咪视频 is actively contributing to the upgrade of the CMS detector which is planned to start taking data in 2020 with a promising and exciting research program, such as discovering new particles, investigating extra dimensions, origin of dark matter etc.
