The Bristol particle physics group will search for evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model, and work to understand the properties of new phenomena. We will carry out this study using a range of approaches and experiments.At the CERN CMS experiment at the LHC, we will search for signatures of the production of dark matter and supersymmetric particles, using events with 'missing energy'. In the absence of a discovery, we will combine statistical information from our observations with results from cosmology and direct dark matter searches, to rule out potential theories of new physics. We will also use the very large datasets produced at the LHC to study the production and properties of the top quark, a standard model particle with unique properties.We will use a complementary approach to search for new physics at the CERN LHCb experiment, looking for subtle signatures of new physics that manifest themselves in the decays of mesons containing heavy quarks. We will use similar approaches to test current ideas about the nature of fundamental quantum symmetries.A number of new experiments are being prepared, and will be ready for use within or shortly after the grant period. The NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS will study the decays of kaons to look for signs of new physics. The SOLID experiment at the BR2 reactor will study neutrino oscillations on an ultra-short baseline of 5-10m. The SHiP experiment at the CERN SPS will use a very high intensity beam to search for 'dark particles' that are signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model. Finally, we have begun to make preparations for the detailed design and optimisation of detectors for a future linear collider.We will continue our programme of particle detector R&D, contributing to the upgrade of CMS and LHCb, to the design and construction of new experiments, and to the development of new sensors and technologies. An important part of this programme will be collaboration with industry and other academic disciplines, in order to generate impact from our work.

布里斯托粒子物理小组将寻找标准模型之外的物理学证据，并致力于理解新现象的性质。我们将使用一系列的方法和实验来进行这项研究。在LHC的CERN CMS实验中，我们将使用“丢失能量”的事件来寻找暗物质和超对称粒子产生的特征。在没有发现的情况下，我们将联合收割机将我们观测到的统计信息与宇宙学和直接暗物质搜索的结果结合起来，以排除新物理学的潜在理论。我们还将使用大型强子对撞机产生的超大型数据集来研究顶夸克的产生和性质，顶夸克是一种具有独特性质的标准模型粒子。我们将使用补充方法在CERN LHCb实验中寻找新物理，寻找新物理的微妙特征，这些特征表现在包含重夸克的介子衰变中。我们将使用类似的方法来测试当前关于基本量子对称性的性质的想法。一些新的实验正在准备中，并将在资助期内或之后不久投入使用。CERN SPS的NA 62实验将研究K介子的衰变，以寻找新物理学的迹象。BR 2反应堆的SOLID实验将在5- 10米的超短基线上研究中微子振荡。CERN SPS的SHiP实验将使用非常高强度的光束来搜索“暗粒子”，这些粒子是标准模型之外的物理特征。最后，我们已经开始为未来直线对撞机的探测器的详细设计和优化做准备，我们将继续我们的粒子探测器研发计划，为CMS和LHCb的升级，新实验的设计和建设，以及新传感器和技术的开发做出贡献。该计划的一个重要组成部分将是与行业和其他学科的合作，以产生我们的工作的影响。
