A PhD student Abdel Rahman Allan from the KU-ATLAS Group at the Physics department got accepted and supported to a prestigious particle physics school at CERN.
This school explores the future of particle colliders, focusing on the scientific motivations and the role of advanced accelerator and detector technologies. Designed for advanced PhD students and early-career postdocs, it provides the knowledge and skills needed to contribute to future collider experiments and the study of the fundamental nature of matter.
The program covers a broad range of topics related to future particle colliders, including theoretical and experimental particle physics, the Standard Model and physics beyond it, flavor and nuclear physics, detector technologies, accelerator systems, triggering and data acquisition, object reconstruction, software and computing, and the interplay between physics goals and detector design. It also explores emerging areas such as artificial intelligence, neutrino physics, non-collider experiments, cosmology, and novel detector technologies.
