Hi all,
I'd like to know what is the integrated luminosity of CMS exp. Cern ?

CMS integrated luminosity is a measure of the total number of proton-proton collisions that have occurred in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) over a period of time. It is typically expressed in units of inverse femtobarns (fb^-1).
CMS integrated luminosity is measured using specialized detectors within the CMS experiment. These detectors track the number of collisions that occur and record the resulting data.
CMS integrated luminosity is important because it provides a measure of the amount of data collected by the CMS detector. This data is crucial for studying rare physics processes and searching for new particles.
The higher the CMS integrated luminosity, the more data is available for analysis. This allows for more precise measurements and a better understanding of particle interactions.
As of 2021, the current CMS integrated luminosity at the LHC is approximately 200 fb^-1. This number is expected to increase significantly in the coming years as the LHC continues to run and collect more data.
