welcome undergraduate physicists High Energy

How does matter hold together? Then we have the interaction table…

welcome undergraduate physicists How do we create particles? How do we detect and measure these particles and their interactions? and Interaction between particles and matter Interaction between particles and matter Identify particle types Identify particle types Measure energy and momentum etc. Measure energy and momentum etc. Conduct physics analysis Conduct physics analysis Interaction between particles and matter Identify particle types Measure energy and momentum etc. Conduct physics analysis

welcome undergraduate physicists Tevatron at Fermilab, Chicago, is the highest-energy accelerator in the world. Proton and anti-proton collide at energy 1.96 TeV. It is the birth place of the first pair of top quarks. SFU is one of the collaboration institutes at Tevatron at Fermilab, Chicago, is the highest-energy accelerator in the world. Proton and anti-proton collide at energy 1.96 TeV. It is the birth place of the first pair of top quarks. SFU is one of the collaboration institutes at Tevatron and D0 experiment At

welcome undergraduate physicists The 1st evidence of Single top quark A big event since discovery of top quark pair in 1995 is: D0 experiment observed single top quarks in 2006! SFU HEP group made significant contribution on this discovery. Dr. O’Neil gave a seminar at Fermilab as a leading scientist.

welcome undergraduate physicists Decision tree & Single top quark Searching SFU group employed a powerful tool “Decision Tree” to search single top. Finally, we found them, Single top quarks are not lonely any more.

welcome undergraduate physicists LHC and ATLAS experiment ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC ApparatuS) is one of the six particle detector experiments currently being constructed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a new particle accelerator at the European Organization for Nuclear Research ( CCCC EEEE RRRR NNNN) in Switzerland. When completed, ATLAS will be 46 meters long and 25 metres in diameter, and will weigh about 7,000 tones. The project involves roughly 2,000 scientists and engineers at 165 institutions in 35 countries.
