Particle physics
Leading scientific breakthroughs to uncover the deepest secrets of the universe.
At Liverpool our work in particle physics encompasses the whole research life cycle. We develop world-leading technologies for instrumentation and build precise detectors for major experiments. We then analyse the data from those experiments, making important discoveries about the smallest elements of the universe.
Leading the way
We play a major role in experiments across the world. Our broad programme, carried out in facilities like CERN and Fermilab, is enabled by our unique mixture of instrumentation and analysis expertise. It's a major reason why we attract leading researchers from around the globe.
Advancing scientific discovery
Our instrumentation - alongside our development of state-of-the-art technology that underpins it - influences the design of next generation experiments. Our insight shapes the future of the subject. We address the most fundamental questions in nature, searching for new particles, forces and phenomena, to advance the boundaries of knowledge.
