Experimenters at TRIUMF made progress towards measuring ground state moments of lithium-11 and in the process tested a new technique to probe magnetic properties in a zero magnetic field.
Canadian scientists who helped design, build, and commission the LHC and ATLAS detector are celebrating record-breaking reactions, made possible by the LHC achieving energies never before reached by man.
Last month, Dr. Lia Merminga was invited to participate in a series of colloquia at York University and U of T where she presented on the state of accelerator science in Canada.
Two of TRIUMF's accelerator physicists, Robert E. Laxdal and Richard A. Baartman, and a leading nuclear-physics collaborator from the University of Manitoba, Shelley Page, have been elected to Fellowship in the American Physical Society.
It is with great sadness that we note the passing of Dr. Edward Auld, an original member of the TRIUMF Design Study team and designer of the TRIUMF cyclotron magnet.
As CERN's Large Hadron Collider springs back into action in Europe, success and celebration in particle physics are also being fueled by developments in Asia.
In three days, the world's largest particle accelerator, CERN's Large Hadron Collider, passed two major milestones, successful restart and circulation & collision of two beams.
