The PLUTO detector, which stands for "Pioneering Lattice Universe for Thriving Observations," is a scientific instrument designed for particle physics research. While there may be various detectors in different contexts, the specific PLUTO you are referring to could be associated with high-energy particle physics experiments, such as those conducted at particle accelerators. In general, particle detectors like PLUTO are used to observe and analyze the products of high-energy collisions, enabling researchers to study fundamental particles and their interactions.
