HER Team
IIT Madras is excited to announce that IIT Madras has recently been included to join the Compact Muon Solenoid experiments of CERN. This will open up a tremendous opportunity not only in the area of Physics but also in a large number of related technologies which are initiated and applied at CERN. The CERN laboratory sits astride the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva. It was one of Europe\'s first joint ventures and now has 21 member states. India is an associate member of the firm. The company is well-known for the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012. The world-wide-web (www) was also invented at CERN. The company is not only an international laboratory for fundamental research in experimental high energy physics but also a platform provider for innovation in technology through international collaboration. India has been part of its experiments since its inception. IIT Madras, the only IIT to be a full member of the CMS experiment, is now part of one of the biggest international collaboration involving more than 3000 scientists, engineers, and students from 172 institutes in 40 countries.
