| Description | Speaker: Albert De Roeck Title: Forward detectors at the LHC for searches and high energy neutrinos measurements Room: TBC (likely 285) Host: Citron Zoom: https://cern.zoom.us/j/62427334349?pwd=Y3cvcGZkRldvdEM5SzZZYnAvK1gxQT09 In 2022 two new detectors have been collecting data at the LHC for searches for BSM physics and to measure high energy neutrinos: FASER and SND@LHC. These new forward experiments have already reported first results this spring on first high energy neutrinos observed at the LHC and on a dark photon search. These experiment are also sensitive to axion-like particles, light dark matter particles, and in general to feebly interacting light long-lived particles. The experiments will be described and physics prospects discussed. We use the experience of these new experiments to introduce the case for a generic forward physics program at the LHC, for neutrino physics, QCD studies and searches for BSM physics. We present a newly proposed project, called the Forward Physics Facility, a dedicated cavern about 600 meters away from the ATLAS interaction point which would host five new forward experiments and is scheduled to make use of the high luminosity LHC run around 2030. |
