Theoretical high energy physics

High-energy physics is a field of research focused on developing models to describe fundamental particles and their interactions. The model used in virtually all of particle physics is called, rather uncreatively, the Standard Model. The Standard Model of elementary particles is a theory of […]

Data analysis

Collisions in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) generate particles that decay into complex forms or other particles. The LHC instruments record the passage of each particle as a series of electronic signals and send the data to the CERN Data Center for digital reconstruction: the reports are stored […]
