Nuclear Physics

"Want to go see some mad scientists?," my friend asked on a recent warm autumn afternoon as we walked around Hyde Park.

"Why not? Hanging out with geniuses sounds like a great plan."




We asked what they are building, and the short answer is a detector, which will be used at the CERN laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. It will be used to study double beta decay.
