LHCb
One of the four major CERN experiments. The LHCb investigates the differences between matter and antimatter by studying the b quarks. Instead of surrounding the entire collision point with an enclosed detector as do ATLAS and CMS, the LHCb experiment uses a series of subdetectors to detect mainly forward particles – those thrown forwards by the collision in one direction – where hadrons containing a b quark can be tagged and studied.
