FASER, the ForwArd Search ExpeRiment, is an LHC experiment located 480 m downstream of the ATLAS interaction point, along the beam collision axis. FASER, with its sub-detector FASERnu, has been taking physics data since the start of LHC Run 3 in July 2022. Since then, the FASER collaboration has been publishing first physics results investigating its two main physics goals: The detection of high-energy neutrinos and the search for new light, weakly-interacting particles.
This presentation will provide an introduction to the FASER experiment, highlighting its design and performance. It will also delve into the initial physics findings from Run 3 data, encompassing both neutrino physics research and the quest for new particles.
