Researchers from IIT Hyderabad are a part of the group that acquired the Breakthrough Prize in Elementary Physics for Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS). The researchers are a part of an experimental collaboration engaged on the CMS experiment.

The 2025 Breakthrough Prize has been awarded to the co-authors of publications from the massive experimental collaborations primarily based on the Giant Hadron Collider at European Group for Nuclear Analysis (CERN), which has the 4 main experiments of CMS, ATLAS, ALICE and LHCb.

In accordance with IIT-H, researchers, together with college members and college students, from the Division of Physics at IIT Hyderabad have been actively engaged on the CMS experiment, on analysis areas equivalent to research of the Higgs boson, seek for new basic particles and forces, and particle reconstruction at detectors amongst others.

The Breakthrough Prize 2025 lists Assistant Professor at IIT-H Saranya Ghosh, a member of the CMS collaboration, as one of many laureates, based on IITH.

Mr. Ghosh, elated on the achievement, stated the prize recognises years of devoted effort and confused that scientific progress that may be achieved by collaborative efforts. He hoped that younger researchers and college students will likely be additional motivated to pursue basic analysis.

IITH Director B.S. Murty, recognising the collective efforts and dedication of 1000’s of scientists, stated it was an honour to be a part of a world collaboration that’s increasing the frontiers of understanding the universe. He expressed satisfaction that the position of India and IITH in high-energy physics analysis was rising.
