Many congratulations to Ellen Sandford, who has been awarded the John G Rutherglen Memorial Prize for her PhD research on direct dark matter detection! 🥳🔬🏆 gla.ac.uk/schools/physic…

HISTORY OF PHYSICS When Quantum Field Theory was a matter of interest for the CIA. 😮

Tune in TODAY for a special Youtube LIVE talk and Q&A about Standard Model measurements in the search for #newphysics! Dr. Ludovica Aperio Bella will explain why “precision measurements” of known particles are so important. Join her at 6pm CET/12pm ET ⤵️ youtube.com/watch?v=daegr1…

The W boson, central to our understanding of the weak nuclear force was discovered 40 years ago CERN. A BBC documentary "The Geneva Event" follows engineers and physicists from the UA1 and UA2 experiments from 1978 to 1983 #fromTheArchives videos.cern.ch/record/1004828

Enlightening visit to “the Dark Side” in the Gran Sasso 🇮🇹 National Laboratory deep inside an Abruzzo mountain today - meeting lots of talented scientists including many from 🇬🇧 universities researching the approx 27 per cent of the universe that is dark matter…🇮🇹🇬🇧🇮🇹🇬🇧

Congratulations to Dr. Ellen Sandford Ellen Sandford on the successful defence of her PhD dissertation on direct dark matter detection with DarkSide and silicon photosensor development! 🥳🎉

New #postdoc opportunity working on dark matter searches with liquid argon time projection chambers! Silicon photosensors, simulations, phenomenology, and the opportunity to directly shape the development of new future dark matter and neutrino detectors! jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…

Today we host 300 A-Level students from around Greater Manchester for our all-day Particle Physics Masterclass event! 👩‍💻⚛️🔭 Profs. Darren Price and Roxanne Guenette kick-off today's event with a whistle-stop tour of particle physics and a Q&A session

Enoch Ejopu and other members of our research team introduce A-Level students to our world class particle detector research and development laboratories as part of today's Particle Physics Masterclass 🥼🔬

UoM Physics & Astronomy engagementmanchester A-Level students visit our teaching labs to learn about nuclear and particle physics experiments from our postgraduate students in today's Particle Physics Schools Masterclass ⚛️🧑‍🔬

As part of today's Particle Physics Schools Masterclass we have a live video connection to CERN and ATLAS Experiment and a lively Q&A session from A-Level students! 🔭📲⚛️🥼

This afternoon 300 A-level students get to experience hands-on data analysis investigating the difference between matter and anti-matter with real data from the Large Hadron Collider CERN here in Manchester as part of our Particle Physics Schools Masterclass! 👩‍💻⚛️💻

Memories are created by those who have passion in what they do.... I had a great time discussing about detectors
