ABSTRACT: CMS is a general purpose proton-proton detector designed to run at the highest luminosity at LHC (Large Hadron Collider at CERN). It is also well adapted for studies at the lower luminosities (i.e. heavy ions). The CMS Collaboration consists right know of over 1800 scientists and engineers from ~170 institutes in 35 countries. The main physics goals are to elucidate the spontaneous symmetry breaking or other mechanisms through which all known particles obtain their mass, and to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model (i.e. Supersymmetry, Compositeness, Exotic Reactions). In addition, CMS can significantly contribute -in parallel to other facilities, to the field of heavy ion physics. |

The offices of the members of CMS Collaboration are situated at the CERN campus at building 40 shown below. Our group's office is located on the 4th floor, at section A (40-4-A12, tel. X-71573). |
