Experimental Particle Physics
Experimental Particle Physics (EPP) probes the fundamental structure of matter. Through large collaborations of thousands of people across dozens of countries, we construct accelerators that collide particles together at very high energies, and build sophisticated detectors to track and understand particle events, allowing us to investigate the nature of the universe.

iCHEP 2012
Wed Jul 4 9:00am - Wed Jul 11 5:00pm
Location: Melbourne
ICHEP (International Conference on High Energy Physics), often referred to as the Rochester Series, is the premier IUPAP-C11 conference in the field.
Held biannually, previous venues include Philadelphia, Moscow and Beijing, with ICHEP2010 to be held in Paris. We have the support of University of Sydney, University of Adelaide, Canterbury University and the Australian Synchrotron, as well as that of many colleagues in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. ICHEP2012 will be held in the new Melbourne Convention Centre under construction on the Yarra and due for completion mid-2009. As for new science that is likely to be reported at ICHEP2012, initial LHC results will be beginning to mature, new results in neutrino physics are expected and dark matter searches are on our radar.
