5 now abundance of chemical elements Big Bang’s afterglow Big Bang

6 Origin of particle masses? Newton didn’t know – neither do we … How did the Universe look directly after the Big Bang? Observe it! What is the Universe made of? We barely know 4%! Where is all the antimatter? Universe ought to be symmetric!

7 Astroparticle physics Accelerator-based particle physics VIRGO gravitational-wave detector Nikhef research: experiment XENON-1t deep-underground dark matter detector ANTARES deep-sea neutrino telescope AUGER cosmic ray observatory Experiments @ CERN: ALICE ATLAS LHCb

13 AUGER cosmic ray observatory Argentina (pampa amarilla) Challenges: - huge area - wireless - solar power - ns timing - noise

14 ANTARES neutrino telescope Mediterranean Sea (2.5 km deep) Challenges: - size - deep sea - low power - noise - motions - ns timing

15 ANTARES neutrino telescope Mediterranean Sea (2.5 km deep)

16 ANTARES neutrino telescope Mediterranean Sea (2.5 km deep)

17 VIRGO laser interferometer Italy (Cascina near Pisa) Challenges: - signal size - noise

18 VIRGO laser interferometer Italy (Cascina near Pisa)

19 LISA laser interferometer Far away! (launch: 2018)

20 XENON-1t dark matter detector Italy (Gran Sasso near Aquila) Challenges: - background!
