The MoEDAL experiment: a new light on the high-energy frontier
MoEDAL is a pioneering LHC experiment designed to search for anomalously ionizing messengers of new physics, such as the magnetic monopole. After a test run at 8 TeV centre-of-mass energy (Ecm), it started official data taking at the LHC at an Ecm of 13 ...

METHODS OF PARTICLE DETECTION FOR HIGH-ENERGY PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS [PDF]
Particle detection instruments may be divided into two classes; devices which see the actual path of the particle, and counting devices which indicate the passage of a particle. Examples of each class are given, the characteristics of each example are tabulated, and the uses for each device are discussed. (D.E.B.)

High-energy physics experiments in space
Abstract The main environmental difficulties related to HEP experimentation on satellites and balloons are described. We review ways how to face these difficulties, analyzing some paradigmatic examples of present and future experiments. Furthermore, the main features of detectors operating outside the terrestrial atmosphere are reported ...
