Description
FASER is a new experiment at the CERN LHC which is located on the beam
collision axis line-of-sight 480 m from the ATLAS collision point in
unused service tunnel, TI12. The quite compact detector is designed to
search for light and very weakly-interacting new particles produced in the LHC collisions. The additional FASERnu emulsion sub-detector allows
to detect and study neutrinos of all flavours produced at LHC. The
detector has been successfully installed and is taking data during the LHC
Run 3. Details on physics prospects, detector
design, commissioning status and first recorded data will be given in
this talk.
