From Beams to Measurements »From Beams to MeasurementsFrom Beams to Measurements☜Scientists from institutes all over the world form experimental collaborations to build large and complex experiments and analyse the myriad of particles produced by collisions in the accelerator. ☜FFB597

Particle Detectors »Particle DetectorsParticle Detectors☜A device used to take measurements during an experiment. It can be a telescopes camera sensitive to photons of a specific wavelength, or a device which absorbs a particles energy and emits an electric signal proportional to its value. The term detector is also used to describe the huge composite devices made of numerous smaller detectors. In the LHC large detectors each layer carries out a very specific task.☜9FDDBE

Detection Principles »Detection PrinciplesDetection Principles☜All particles of a beam or their secondary interaction or decay products will eventually interact with surrounding matter. Depending on the particle type and energy, swift particles penetrating in a material will be subject to different atomic and nuclear processes which effects are amplified and recorded. Collating all these clues from different parts of the detector, physicists build up a snapshot of what was in the detector at the moment of a collision. ☜D3ABAB
