The proposed super $\tau$-charm facility (STCF) is a symmetric electron-positron collider, designed to provide $e^+e^−$ interactions at a center-of-mass energy from 2.0 to 7.0 GeV. This energy region corresponds to the transitions between non-perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and perturbative QCD. Hence, a large variety of topics in elementary particle physics can be pursued at STCF,...
NA66/AMBER has been approved by CERN in 2020 as a new multi-purpose facility for experiments in meson and baryon physics. In a first beamtime in 2023, data have been taken for the determination of antiproton production cross-sections in proton-helium collisions, needed for the interpretation of cosmic antimatter observations. Preparations are ongoing for a measurement of the proton charge...
The long standing discrepancy between the measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($a_\mu$) and its theoretical prediction in the Standard Model has reached the 5 sigma level after the last Fermilab measurement. This has kept the evaluation of the leading hadronic contribution to $a_\mu$ $(a_\mu^{HLO})$ under constant scrutiny, because it dominates the theoretical uncertainty. The...
With their roots in the Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) Study Group at CERN, several ideas for exploiting the full scientific potential at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) Fixed-Target complex have been brought forward. Amongst them, several proposals wish to utilise the full intensity potential that the accelerator can provide. The ECN3 cavern in the CERN North Area was identified as a...
