Doc, World Premiere, First Film
Maurizio Pierini is a research physicist at CERN in Geneva. Since the Higgs Boson discovery in 2012, no new physics has emerged, and many questions remain frustratingly unanswered. Maurizio works on a particle detector called CMS. He wants to upgrade it with an AI tool that can detect anomalous phenomena at unprecedented speeds. He needs to convince colleagues and secure a massive amount of funding. He succeeds, he makes a team of young physicists. They publish 4 papers and then they produce the tool that now is online. Will it work? Can they push CMS beyond the Higgs boson and into the realm of new physics?
