First results of the NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS

The NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS studies dimuon production in proton and heavy ion collisions. Its silicon pixel vertex telescope allows tracking of muon pairs in the vertex region, complementing the information from the muon spectrometer, and improving the mass resolution and signal-to-noise rat...

Descripción
Sumario:The NA60 experiment at the CERN SPS studies dimuon production in proton and heavy ion collisions. Its silicon pixel vertex telescope allows tracking of muon pairs in the vertex region, complementing the information from the muon spectrometer, and improving the mass resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. First results from the In-In data taking are shown for the light resonances and the J/ psi meson production.
