The QMUL Experimental Particle Physics Group has an exciting set of particle physics experiments at the forefront of the field. Members of the Group have been working on the commissioning and analysis of data from the ATLAS detector at the CERN LHC which has just finished its first full year of data taking from which over a 100 papers have been published. The ATLAS Group will continue the study of the top quark, started at the CDF experiment, at the LHC and the expertise gained will allow us to probe for new physics such as the discovery of the Higgs particle or Supersymmetry. We will also continue our study of proton structure at the highest possible energies. The QMUL Group is also involved in upgrades to the ATLAS detector for the higher luminosity by participating in the ATLAS Tracker Upgrade Level One Calorimeter Trigger upgrade programmes. At the other end of the mass scale the neutrino group is exploiting data from the T2K long baseline neutrino experiment in Japan which will continue the investigations of the recently discovered neutrino oscillations and participating in the rich programme at the SNO+ detector in Canada. In addition the Group is at the forefront of preparations for the SuperB collider project and will look to exploit new opportunities, such Dark Matter searches or Linear Colliders when they become available.

QMUL实验粒子物理小组在该领域的前沿拥有一套令人兴奋的粒子物理实验。该小组成员一直致力于调试和分析欧洲核子研究中心大型强子对撞机ATLAS探测器的数据，该中心刚刚完成了第一个全年的数据采集工作，发表了100多篇论文。ATLAS小组将在大型强子对撞机上继续对顶夸克的研究，从CDF实验开始，所获得的专业知识将使我们能够探索新的物理，如发现希格斯粒子或超对称性。我们还将继续在尽可能高的能量下研究质子结构。QMUL集团还通过参与ATLAS跟踪器升级一级热量计触发升级计划，参与了ATLAS探测器的升级，以获得更高的亮度。在质量尺度的另一端，中微子小组正在利用日本T2K长基线中微子实验的数据，该实验将继续调查最近发现的中微子振荡，并参与加拿大SNO+探测器的RICH计划。此外，该集团正处于超级对撞机项目准备工作的前沿，并将寻求利用新的机会，如暗物质搜索或线性对撞机，当它们可用时。
