Welcome to the Particle Physics Experiment (PPE) Research Group
For information on PhD positions to start in September/October 2025, see Postgraduate Opportunities and Current PhD Projects.
The experimental particle physics group at the University of Glasgow is studying the fundamental constituents of matter, and their interactions. Our activities are carried out in collaboration with international laboratories such as CERN, where we participate in experimental collaborations and analyse large datasets in search of new phenomena. To further these studies the group is developing future detector technologies for experimentation, and computer grids for analysis of data.
The group is comprised of around 12 academics, around 30 research associates, technicians and engineering staff, around 30 postgraduate students, and two group administrators. For contact details, see Members or Contact us.
