Bill Murray Testing Tracker cables inside ATLAS At school I did Maths and physics I did a degree in physics starting 1983, and went on to do a PhD Joined RAL in 1990 I have worked on four major projects: DELPH ATLAS MuScat Mice Testing Tracker cables inside ATLAS

Some diversions... Hazel Girls Boys Mountains

Where is ATLAS? 27 km ring Geneva Airport LHC ATLAS © Photo CERN CERN

Proton smashing... Two protons collide with 7TeV each 7Tev is 7000 times the proton mass Or a million times the energy of one nuclear fusion Here is a simulated proton collision in ATLAS We will look for new phenomena in the debris Higgs boson? Dark matter? Black holes? Something we didn't think of Starts to work next year...
