The milliQan experiment: search for milli-charged particles at the LHC
arXiv:2008.07877
Abstract
Charge quantization has always been enigmatic. Theoretically, Millicharged particles can be an answer. The use of existing detectors, without affecting their initial mandate, is a very promising low cost new physics detector for millicharged particles. The Milliqan collaboration has installed a 1/100th version of the full detector at LHC point 5 in CMS. Data collected in 2018 is now under investigation/analysis. Some results are presented in this paper.
