Moedal-Mapp Collaboration

MoEDAL (Monopole and Exotics Detector at the LHC) is designed to search for manifestations of new physics through highly ionising particles at CERN. The most important motivation for the MoEDAL experiment is to pursue the quest for magnetic monopoles at LHC energies, as well as any massive, stable or long-lived, slow-moving particle with single or multiple electric charges that arise in various scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model. The MoEDAL Apparatus for Penetrating Particles (MAPP) upgrade will extend the reach to the dark matter sector by searching for neutral long-lived particles that decay visibly in the detector and for milli-charged particles giving rise to anomalously low ionization.
