Experimental particle physics explores the fundamental particles and forces that govern the universe. Researchers test the Standard Model through high-energy collisions, precision measurements, rare processes, and neutrino experiments, while searching for new phenomena such as dark matter, new particles and forces, and new sources of matter-antimatter asymmetry.<\/p>\n
At Boston University, this work spans the energy and intensity frontiers, combining advanced detector development, electronics, computing, and data analysis.<\/p>\n
