The QMUL Particle Physics Research Centre, part of the Department of Physics, is active in leading international experiments, focused either on discovery and identification of new particles, or on testing the quantitative features of globally unifying theories. The PPRC group comprises about 30 staff and 10 Ph.D. students.
Queen Mary PPRC personnel is involved in two experiments (H1 and BaBar) currently carrying out physics analyses, one (ATLAS) moving from construction to first physics in 2010, with future upgrades already planned, and one (T2K) under construction and planning to start to take data also in 2010. In addition,
we have a substantial involvement in the development of the UK distributed computing grid, GridPP.
More information on our research and outreach activities, as well as Ph.D. studentships, can be found from the links above.
