Overview
This is accomplished either directly with accelerators that create the particles under study or by observing high-energy particles from outer space.
Features
- In the Particle Physics degree at University of Oxford, you will spend half the first year on a lecture course in addition to starting your research and, if appropriate, spend your second year on-site at your experiment.
- Laboratories here in Oxford and experiments at overseas facilities provide access to a high-tech environment and excellent research training, directly applicable to a broad range of fields.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- The world's biggest accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, is running and in 2012 the Higgs boson, a particle thought to give mass to all elementary particles, was discovered.
- The understanding of its properties is one of the main aims of the ATLAS experiment.
- The Oxford group is also focused on the search of new particles predicted in Supersymmetry and others beyond the Standard Model theories.
- Elucidation of CP violation, one of the mysteries of particle physics, is the aim of the sub-department’s other LHC experiment, LHCb. Both experiments will require you to obtain and analyse data from the highest-energy machine in the world.
