The department, in collaboration with colleagues from UK Universities, is involved in many high energy physics (HEP) projects and running experiments located at different research institutes around the world.​

NEUTRINO EXPERIMENTS

Detectors designed to study neutrinos, particles that interact only via the weak force and gravity with other particles of matter. Neutrino detectors must be very large to detect a significant number of neutrinos and are often built underground, to isolate them from cosmic rays ​and other background radiation

 

DARK MATTER EXPERIMENTS

Experiment designed to try to detect dark matter, a hypothetical form of matter thought to account for approximately 85% of the matter in the Universe which doesn't interact via the electromagnetic force, being as a consequence difficult to detect​​
