Events are mapped by detectors which gather information for each particle. Calorimeters, which determine the energy of the particles and the physical location of the events, are spread throughout the experiment. A magnet system determines the momentum and charge of the particles.
Scientists measure charge, energy and momentum for the multitude of particles. Measurements on decay particles yield information regarding the original particle.
