Happy Higgs Boson Discovery Day!
It popped into our lives on the 4th July 2012
thanks to the Atlas and CMS experiments.

#ICYMI: The @CMSexperiment at CERN has achieved the most precise measurement of the W boson mass to date. This result aligns with the Standard Model’s predictions, resolving a long-standing mystery.
More information: https://cms.cern/wboson
Filling the energy gaps: CMS measures the top quark pair production cross section at 5 TeV, an intermediate regime between the low energies explored at Tevatron and LHC's typical energies, validating the standard model over a broad energy range.

Does this image look familiar? 
For the first time ever, #CMS researchers observed the decay of the J/ψ meson into four muons… and this event display is almost identical to the CMS #logo!

Could #AI discover new fundamental particles on its own? 
Researchers from CMS unleashed AI #algorithms to scan through their data without human guidance on what they are looking for.
Did they find anything humans had missed? Read more to find out https://cms.cern/news/can-ai-find-new-particles-its-own

How do you find a needle in a haystack - one that does not play by the normal rules of matter, like #SUSY particles?
See how CMS searches for them, especially those that are too lightweight and may escape the usual search methods

We cannot measure any cross-sections at the #LHC if we don't precisely count the billion collisions occurring every second... But how? In a recent analysis, #CMSexperiment overcomes the challenge by using Z bosons decaying to muons. Yeah! It's Compact Muon Solenoid after all.

Happy #LGBTQSTEMDay! 
Today CMS celebrates all our colleagues and their identities: we raise the progress pride flag in recognition of all members of the LGBTQIA+ community who have and continue to contribute to STEM 
The #CMSexperiment has presented its first search for #newphysics using data from #Run3 of the #LargeHadronCollider. The new study looks at the possibility of "#darkphoton" production in the #decay of #Higgsbosons in the detector.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the #discovery of the Z boson at #CERN.
But what exactly is it, and how does CMS use it for #research and calibrations?
