On the 3rd of June the Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory published its highly anticipated final measurement of the muon magnetic moment, or g-2. UCL played a leading role in the UK joining this experiment, and throughout data-taking and analysis.
See the UCL news item and links theirin for more.
Applications are now open for Brian Duff summer internships in the HEP group:
the application deadline is 17:00 on Monday 28th April 2025.
See the HEP Summer Students Project Page for a list of projects and details of how to apply.
It is with great sadness that we wish to inform you that Professor Basil Hiley passed
away peacefully on Saturday the 25th of January at the age of 89.
He will be remembered by many as a great physicist, one who was always willing to
follow his intuition while backing up his ideas with a phenomenal knowledge and
insight in to physics. He was also a hugely generous person, keen to share his ideas
and collaborate with many of us in the department - young and old alike.

In January 2025, UCL's President and Provost, Dr Michael Spence, visited CERN,
alongside a UCL delegation for an in-depth look at some of the world's most groundbreaking scientific advancements,
and to explore opportunities for strengthening the UCL-CERN collaborations.
New results from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) collaboration involving UCL researchers have put the best-ever limits on weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for what makes up our universe’s invisible mass.

When Going Underground, Don’t Forget the Sunscreen (and other lessons from experimental neutrino physics)
The High Energy Physics group at UCL invites applications for a
Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) diagnostics development.
A new, ultraprecise measurement of the subatomic muon particle’s anomalous magnetic moment, conducted at US-based Fermilab and involving researchers from UCL, reinforces a discrepancy between theory and experiment that physicists can’t explain, potentially hinting at new physics.
We are keen to support a limited number of strong candidates in applying for Research Fellowships.
If your profile and interests match our activities, we would be very interested to hear from you.
