Experimental Particle Physics
Do you want to discover…
• What is the origin of mass ?• Discover the Higgs boson with ATLAS
• Why is there more matter than anti-matter in the universe ?
• Measure CP violation with LHCb• Are there new fundamental particles ?
• Find supersymmetry with CDF
• What is the structure of the proton ?• Scatter electrons from quarks at ZEUS
Would you like to...• Measure fundamental properties of physics• Develop new imaging technologies• Work in large international groups
Visiting / staying at overseas facillities.
PPE Group: 8 Lecturers,
21 Researchers, 7 Support staff,
17 PhD Students.
PhD TrainingFull programme of technical PhD training lectures from
working on an experiment the size of a five storey building
LHCb looks for a tiny difference
between the behaviour of matter
and antimatter
ZEUSPerform Deep
Inelastic Scattering atthe only e-p
collider in the world.
Large data sample ready
for you to analyse.
CDF uses the most powerful particle accelerator currently
operating in the world.
Large
HadronCollider
The largest scientific
project ever built startsApril 2007.Have your analysis
ready to study the first data.
Experimental Particle Physics
E-Science• GRID
– The web of processing power
• Simulation & Reconstruction– LHC experiments will produce
xxTB of data/ year
– How do we store this?
– How do we analyse this?
200 CPU Farm located in the Kelvin Building. Additional CPU and storage are located in Edinburgh and Durham.Connected to a globally distributed network of computers
Optorsim is a Grid simulator designed to test dynamicreplication strategies
