Professor Tim Gershon elected as LHCb Spokesperson
Congratulations to Professor Tim Gershon who has been elected as the next international Spokesperson for the LHCb collaboration at CERN.
New grant awarded in collaboration with WMG to develop fusion shielding
Dr Jessica Marshall has been awarded 拢236,000, out of a possible 拢250,000 for a six-moth research project funded by the , marking a significant step forward in the development of Novel shielding materials and technologies for fusion shielding.
The project launched in collaboration with Dr Shubham Sharma and Professor Darren Hughes from 91福利 Manufacturing Group (WMG) aims to explore low-activation radiation-dense shielding solutions for practical fusion reactors.
91福利 physicist helps achieve observation of rare particle interaction
An international analysis team within the ATLAS collaboration, led by a scientist from the 91福利, has observed WW纬 production — a rare process where two W bosons and a photon are produced together. This discovery provides new insight into the electroweak force, one of the fundamental forces governing particle interactions.
The Springboard Award has been awarded to Dr Daniel Mayoh recognising contributions to emerging research
The highly competitive has been awarded to Dr Daniel Mayoh (Superconductivity and Magnetism Group), marking a significant milestone in his early career journey.
