2 Particle Physics and RAL Rutherford High Energy Laboratory created in 1957 for research into particle physics. UK accelerators - NIMROD proton synchrotron  Closed in 1978 and revamped as ISIS pulsed neutron source - visit today. Today, RAL is a multi-disciplinary laboratory e.g. Space-Science, Lasers, DIAMOND..., employing in total > 1000 people (  90 Particle Physic). PPD now using international facilities - CERN (Geneva), DESY (Hamburg), SLAC (Stanford), FNAL (Chicago) + underground expts in Minnesota, Sudbury, Boulby…  Talks today will cover some of the work in these centres + future projects.

3 Rutherford Rutherford, Geiger and Marsden discovered the nucleus using  particles (University of Manchester).

4 ISIS - Pulsed Neutron Source

5 DIAMOND Synchrotron To be built at RAL. Start of operation = Cost = £195M. Studies at molecular/atomic level.
