ABOUT US
The Experimental Physics (EP) Department carries out research in the field of experimental particle physics.
It aims to provide a stimulating scientific atmosphere and remains an important reference centre for the European physics community. It contributes to the education and training of young scientists.
EP is one of the largest departments at CERN, with about 500 staff members and over 300 other members of personnel: Fellows, Associates, Students and Apprentices.
In addition it hosts the approximately 12,000 Users that visit CERN from their home institutes around the world to perform scientific research.
Upcoming events
Results from the CMS experiment are presented for natural supersymmetry (SUSY) targeting so-called compressed scenarios, namely models with very small mass differences among the SUSY partners.
Silicon carbide (SiC) detectors are emerging as key components for radiation monitoring in extreme environments, including ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) FLASH radiotherapy, nuclear physics, high energy physics and plasma diagnostic in fu
Structural biology relies on X-ray crystallography to provide much of the three-dimensional information on macromolecules (proteins, DNA, RNA) that informs biological function.
