Preparing the simulation and computing infrastructure for FCC-ee precision physics
Long before the first FCC-ee collisions take place, physicists are already studying its physics. Not in a detector, but in simulations capable of reproducing particle interactions and detector responses with unprecedented accuracy.

“The FCC-ee could open the Pandora’s box to understand the details of the Higgs boson” – Portrait Matthew McCullough
Born in Belfast and inspired by his brother, Matthew McCullough arrived at CERN in 2015 to develop theoretical studies on Beyond Standard Model physics and on the compositeness of the Higgs boson.
