Beam tests boost #FCC detector technologies 🔬
The recent beam tests #AtCERN offered the first opportunity to evaluate two new calorimeter technologies under study for International Detector for Electron Accelerator (IDEA), both of which showed promise for future large-scale developments.

From 28 June to 27 July, Layer-0 was hung from a robotic arm in CERN’s North Area undergoing final tests before spaceflight.
Layer-0 measures the charge sign and momentum of charged particles and has been developed by the AMS collaboration #AtCERN as part of the upgrade of the AMS detector.
