The first Physics World Particle & Nuclear Briefing contains the best of our recent coverage of these fascinating parts of physics, as Physics World editor-in-chief Matin Durrani explains
From the Higgs boson at CERN to nuclear reactions inside stars, who doesn’t love particle and nuclear physics?
There’s so much exciting work going on in both fields, which is why we’re bringing you this new Physics World Particle & Nuclear Briefing.
The 30-page, free-to-read digital magazine contains the best of our recent coverage in the two areas, including – of course – plenty on CERN, which is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year.
In addition to former CERN science communicator Achintya Rao looking back at the famous day in 2012 when the lab announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, there’s an interview with Freya Blekman, who talks about the joy of a career in physics as part of the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider.
You can also find out how CERN’s Quantum Technology Initiative is encouraging collaboration between the high-energy physics and quantum tech communities.
But it’s not all about CERN. Over in the US, there are in-depth interviews with Lia Merminga, the physicist who’s current director of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, and with Mike Witherell, who’s head of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Looking to the future, we’ve included an analysis of the influential “P5” report into the future of US particle physics, which recently called for the construction of a muon collider. Physics World also talks to Ambrogio Fasoli – the new head of EUROfusion, who says that Europe must ramp up its efforts to build a demonstration fusion reactor.
And with our pick of the best recent news and research updates, the new Physics World Particle & Nuclear Briefing really is the place for you to start.
If that’s not enough, do keep checking our particle and nuclear channel on the Physics World website for regular updates in the two fields.
