Ecuador-CERN/CMS Collaboration Expansion Workshop

Thursday 10 Mar 2022, 09:00 → 13:30 America/Guayaquil

Edgar Fernando Carrera Jarrin (Universidad San Francisco de Quito (EC))

Ecuador, through SENESCYT, maintains a collaboration agreement with the CERN laboratory since 1999.  In 2015, two local institutes, EPN and USFQ, joined the CMS Collaboration, one of the largest experiments at CERN.

The main objective of this workshop is to initiate an expansion of the technical collaboration between engineers and researchers working at local Ecuadorian institutes and the CMS experiment at CERN.

The workshop will be remote.  The Zoom link will be sent to registered and approved participants.
