CMS

Encontro com os investigadores do LIP na experiência CMS/CERN: uma oportunidade de conhecer as pesquisas de nova física no LHC. O LHC é o acelerador de partículas mais potente do mundo, está localizado no CERN, e permite explorar os constituintes da matéria ao nível mais fundamental. O LIP é membro fundador da experiência CMS, tendo sido responsável pela concepção e construção de...

Higgs & SUSY

CMS

Após a descoberta do bosão de Higgs no LHC, tornou-se importante determinar se esta nova partícula faz parte de uma teoria mais abrangente e que permance por agora desconhecida. Os físicos no grupo CMS do LIP estão a investigar esta possibilidade através de novos modos de produção e decaimentodo Higgs e através da medição das suas propriedades. Buscas de supersimetria (Susy) são...

Heavy flavor & QGP

CMS

Beauty e charm como sondas da interação forte. A interacção forte é a mais intensa das forças da Natureza. Liga os quarks nos protões e neutrões dos núcleos atómicos, determinando a estructura íntima do mundo visível: 99% da matéria visível é uma manifestação tangível da força forte. Todavia a nossa compreensão atual desta força é ainda primitiva: não percebemos bem como...

Detector upgrades & medical physics

CMS

Desafios e detectores para o futuro HL-LHC. Os detectores da próxima década preparam-se hoje. O futuro high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) permitirá uma expansão considerável do programa de física. O ambiente será caracterizado por uma densidade de colisões muito elevada, o que por sua vez impõe grandes desafios aos detectores que nele irão operar. O grande “upgrade” dos detectores com...

Introduction to ATLAS

27/02/2018, 10:00

ATLAS

The LHC is currently the most powerful hadron accelerator in the world that serves to study the fundamental particles. Our team is part of the international collaboration of physicists and engineers that operates the gigantic ATLAS experience at CERN. This experiment registers the proton or lead ion collisions we next examine in order to address some of the most fundamental issues in today's...

Higgs

ATLAS

How does the Higgs boson interact, which we discovered a few years ago? We think that the particle we discover is at the origin of the mass of all elementary particles. But to know if it really behaves as predicted in theory we have to study in detail its properties. If we find out that they are different than expected, we may have the first evidence of new physics in the LHC!

Heavy ions

ATLAS

How did the plasma of quarks and gluons behave, this very dense and hot state of matter that existed shortly after the Big Bang? This plasma, which we are able to recreate by colliding lead ions into colossal energies, has very different properties from normal matter. We can "look" at its interior by examining jets of particles that cross it. It is a unique opportunity to study the subject...

Advanced processing

ATLAS

The collisions occur in the LHC every 25 nanoseconds (40 million times per second). Of these, only very few are interesting for physics studies. In order to be able to analyze and identify interesting collisions in real time we use the most advanced electronic and computer systems. Our group is a leader in the jet picking system, and we are already developing advanced algorithms that will be...

LIP Summer Students Program

Resources for Students

We receive physics students for periods from 2 weeks to 2 months over the Summer, in research internships where the students get integrated in ongoing research projects. Register in April!

Course on LHC Physics

27/02/2018, 17:05

Resources for Students

The course serves as an introduction to LHC physics. For anyone with a basic course on particle physics and/or to be familiar with the basics of physics. Register by March 3rd!
