IMPORTANT NOTICE

Due to the current pandemic, sadly we do not think we will be able to run the Particle Physics Masterclass in person, but we will be running it virtually! The virtual masterclass will take place on Thursday 4 March 2021, but we may run them on additional days as well, depending on demand.

INFO

The Particle Physics Masterclass is a popular series of one day events for sixth form students and their teachers, run by particle physics researchers at various institutes all over the country. Since the inception of the programme in 1997, they have proved to be stimulating and informative for thousands of students and hundreds of schools. These classes provide excellent support for the material on Particle Physics which is in many 16+ curricula.

The Masterclasses at RAL provide the chance to hear talks by leading Particle Physicists from RAL and CERN, tour one of our particle accelerators (Diamond Light Source and the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source) and use data from the Large Hadron Collider to find a Higgs Boson with staff from RAL’s prestigious Particle Physics Department. Programmes, photos and lectures from previous years can be found on the RAL Masterclass website.
