Xie Cheng PhD Viva
Examiners: Anthony Brown (Durham) and Jon Butterworth (UCL)
Everyone is invited for drinks in E7, Physics after the viva.
Applications are now open for Brian Duff summer internships in the HEP group:
the application deadline is 17:00 on Monday 29th April 2024.
See the HEP Summer Students Project Page for a list of projects and details of how to apply.
The High Energy Physics group at UCL invites applications for a
Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) diagnostics development.
A new, ultraprecise measurement of the subatomic muon particle’s anomalous magnetic moment, conducted at US-based Fermilab and involving researchers from UCL, reinforces a discrepancy between theory and experiment that physicists can’t explain, potentially hinting at new physics.

The latest result in the search for Higgs pair production in ATLAS at the LHC, in the 4b final state, is now out:
with big contributions from the UCL ATLAS team, including the co-editor of the journal publication.
Higgs pair production (the production of two Higgs bosons in a single proton-proton collision at the LHC)
is a rare process that can shed light on the properties of the Higgs boson and particularly the Higgs field
potential (the famous "Mexican hat"). The Electroweak Phase Transition, one of the most dramatic and
defining moments in the evolution of our Universe, happened around 1 picosecond (one billionth of a
millisecond!) after the Big Bang. The shape of the Higgs field potential is intricately linked to that moment.
The Cosmoparticle Initiative congratulates core staff member Chamkaur Ghag on his election as spokesperson for the LZ dark matter detection experiment.
Professors Chamkaur Ghag and Peter Barker (both UCL Physics & Astronomy) receive a major grant which builds on the work they have been carrying out within the Cosmoparticle Initiative.
