Particle Physics* & Nuclear Physics

About the PP Group 16 Academics & Fellows 7 Visiting Profs including 1 Nobel Laureate 25 Researchers and Engineers 8 High SkilledTechnical Staff 20 PhD Students Host UK (and Europe’s) premier facility for construction of detectors for Particle Physics Liverpool Semiconductor Detector Centre (LSDC) and Detector Fabrication Facility About 70% of our activity at CERN

Particle Physics Drivers & Strategy To answer the most important questions in fundamental physics Study of the Higgs (H) Understand mass generation of neutrinos and CP violation in the neutrino sector ( ) Baryon asymmetry (matter-antimatter dominance - CP) Non-luminous energy and matter (DE,DM) Look for hints of new physics beyond Standard Model (BSM) In line with national and international priorities Keep Liverpool “at the front of the pack” A balanced strategy of high discovery potential v guaranteed measurements Ensure we do R&D that supports physics

Nuclear Physics Complementary Interests Structure of NucleiISOLDE Properties of Matter at Early Stage in the UniverseALICE AntimatterALPHA At CERN, approx. 5 academics. Use the LSDC and Detector Fabrication Facility

Funding Profile £4M/year Consolidated Grant(s) £3M/year “responsive” inc. STFC, EPSRC, RS, AWE, DSTL, ERC (Sustained over last 30 years) Includes Cockcroft

New Initiatives Next generation of physics experiments and accelerator Adapt to new input of Asian funding Initiatives in far east (HK). Expansion “Local” expansion and increase of links with CERN Exploitation of engineering links to benefit other Departments STFC/EPSRC opportunities for increased revenue to Liverpool Studentship Scheme (2014/…) 5 students shared with CERN Strengthening of links with CERN via DL/Cockcroft Business Park ATLAB Exploitation of technologies Quantum Technologies (With EEE) (DE/DM) Sensor City (L’pool) Benefiting from IPS Fellowship

Current Applications We have strengthened our programme of applications (security sector, homeland defence, nuclear decommissioning addition to traditional health sector) “want real commercial output and not simply more Ponzi style grants MODES (trials and commercial with company) ARMSReactor Monitoring (pre-trial at Wylfa and the IEAE now with SME involvement) PCTWellcome Foundation Neutron Detectors (Intention to commercialize) International Festival Of Business

SUMMARY University has invested deeply in Particle Physics unique resources strong track record Broad Programme Physics Engineering Training & inspiring next generation of scientists Proud of what Liverpool has contributed, for over 100 years, to the fundamental understanding of our Universe.
