Experimental High Energy Physics Group
The Experimental High Energy Physics Group of the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology
is deeply associated with the
CERN accelerators.
We study the Physics of Elementary Particles.
Experiments study the outcome of collisions of accelerated particles,
observed
in detectors.
Experiments and detectors carry a common name.
The group is still moderately involved in two recent experiments:
OPAL, studying electron positron collisions with the
LEP
collider,
CHORUS, searching for mass oscillations of neutrinos from the
SPS
proton synchrotron.
and in two current experiments:
ATLAS, due to start shortly, to study proton proton collisions at record energy with the new
LHC accelerator,
OPERA, for further search for mass oscillations of neutrinos from the
SPS
proton synchrotron.
The group has been involved in the CERN RD 46
collaboration for R&D concerning microtracking devices and imaging.
