First double crystal channelling observed at the LHC: 450GeV protons deflected from the beam halo with a first bent crystal (TCCS) towards a second crystal (TCCP) and subsequently channeled towards the pixel and the fiber tracker detectors. Major achievement for TWOCRYST&SELDOM
CERN's experiments are global efforts. The 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics honors over 13,000 researchers whose labors have led to the precise description the Higgs mechanism, the discovery of dozens of new particles, analysis of rare processes and matter-antimatter asymmetry and exploration of nature at the shortest distances and most extreme conditions. https://t.co/OSDzo6jMHF @CERN
Participating to an interesting workshop on EDM at ECT* in Trento https://t.co/m7lG6RZHr0 where the PhD students Giorgia Tonani and Sara Cesare gave excellent talks!
It is finally published!
Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 031901 (2023) - Observation of a J/Psi Resonance Consistent with a Strange Pentaquark Candidate in B- -> J/Psi Lambda pbar Decays https://t.co/Vhz107o3Kv
Congratulations to Sara Cesare PhD student @LaStatale for the best oral presentation at Hadron 2023 conference in the New Facilities session for the talk “Proof-of-principle test for a charm baryon dipole moment experiment at LHC”
#BeamTime is now in full swing after the first collisions of the year a few weeks back. As we move into chapter two of #LHCRun3, let’s take a look at some of the upgrades the @LHCbExperiment did to prepare for the #LHC’s third #physics run.
#DidYouKnow that the @LHCbExperiment has a new permanent exhibition?

Giorgia Tonani on stage presenting her work at IFAE national conference in Catania. She is together with her colleagues, PhD students in Milan, Chiara Mancuso and Sara Cesare also contributing to the conference @LHCbPhysics@LHCbExperiment
I work at @CERN, where I study the use of #silicon crystals 🔮 to deflect #particles from the #LHC.
Today, I'm underground! 👷🏿♂️ Where we're checking to see if our crystals can be installed at the locations used in my simulations. Time to investigate 🔎 #UKatCERN#physics
Interesting workshop on fixed-target experiments at LHC is going on in the nice venue of Aussois, France. https://t.co/9cwU2BjkhS
Significant progress towards the first measurements of strange and charm baryon dipole moments at LHC has been reported.
Today the @LHCbExperiment published RX, a combined test of lepton universality and one of the legacy results of the original LHCb detector. But how did we get here? I don't do this often but gather round folks because 🧵
Observation of a J/ψΛ resonance consistent with a strange pentaquark candidate in B⁻→J/ψΛp̅ decays https://t.co/ctw00f9rGy - The mass and the width of this new state are measured to be 4338.2±0.7±0.4MeV and 7.0±1.2±1.3MeV.
The 2nd workshop on electromagnetic dipole moments of unstable particles started today at Palazzo Feltrinelli in Gargnano del Garda. Very nice discussions ongoing @INFN_@LaStatale@UnimiFisicaSem@CERN Agenda is here: https://t.co/mIuBO1oWtS
Very pleased to see this work finally on arXiv, as a nice results of a PhD thesis, CERN-THESIS-2020-015. This analysis provides new information and essential ingredients for future measurements of Lc+ dipole moments via spin precession.
Amplitude analysis of the Λc⁺→pK⁻π⁺ decay and Λc⁺ baryon polarization measurement in semileptonic beauty hadron decays https://t.co/80ALLaBaFR - A significant Λc⁺ polarization is found.
