Petals in a Storm: Canada’s First Inner Tracker Petal Put to the Test
For the TRIUMF team, it was both exciting and nerve-wracking to watch their first completed Inner Tracker “petal” – a delicate construct of silicon sensors, carbon fibre and electronics, assembled partially by precision machines and partially by the skilled hands of technicians – depart for Diamond Light Source in Oxfordshire, England. It left Vancouver wrapped…
Celebrating International Day of Women and Girls in Science
International Day of Women and Girls in Science is a moment to celebrate the incredible women and girls who are shaping the future of science and innovation.

Venture to the frontiers of modern physics Saturday Morning Lectures, proudly presented by TRIUMF, UBC, and SFU! Saturday Morning Lectures is a bi-weekly lecture series for the public that explores topics in physics, chemistry, and beyond.
PUBLIC TOURS
Join us for a first-hand experience of TRIUMF science, experimental facilities, and world-leading particle accelerator infrastrucutre. Follow the path of the proton from its origins bound in a hydrogen atom to its destination down the beamline and into targets and detectors. This 45-minute guided tour covers the majority of our site and traverses two of our largest research halls.
