1. PERG Seminar Warsaw University of Technology, 15.01.2000 Collaboration of particle physicists with electronics engineers Grzegorz Wrochna Soltan Institute for Nuclear Studies 3 Nobel’s in 10 minutes

2. In the 60-ties the most common particle detectors were bubble chambers. It was necessary to measure by hand many points on each pictures.

3. In 70-ties G.Charpak invented multiwire chamber - the first electronic particle detector

4. The marriage of physics with electronics was well appreciated by the Nobel committee. Georges Charpak was honored with the Nobel price in 1992.

5. Since then, particle detectors are build together by physicists and electronics engineers

6. for developing calculus of particle physics in the 70-ties Nobel Prize 1999 in physics Gerardus ‘t Hooft Martinus Veltman

7. The Nobel was given as late as 1999 because of the experimental confirmation calculus experiment

8. In the 1999 press release the Royal Academy promised the next Nobel for particle physics: When can we expect the next great discovery? An important ingredient in the theory 't Hooft and Veltman have developed is an as yet undemonstrated particle termed the Higgs particle. … But the only accelerator now under construction and powerful enough for more detailed study of the new particle is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN.

9. Nobel prize in physics 2007 for discovery of the Higgs particle at LHC
