News from Group Prof. Zacharias News from Group Prof. Zwerger Zeroing in on the tau lepton 2018-12-19 – A new research group will be launched at the Max Planck Institute for Physics (MPP) in early January 2019. Its main focus will be on the analysis of decay of the tau lepton, an elementary particle related to the electron. The “Tautology Project” will be led by Max-Planck Fellow Stephan Paul, Professor of Hadron Structure and Fundamental Symmetries at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and co-coordinator of the recently approved Cluster of Excellence “Origins”. TUM successfully gets four research Clusters of Excellence 2018-09-27 – The Technical University of Munich (TUM) has got off to another successful start in the extremely competitive Excellence Initiative organized by Germany’s government and federal states. Over the next seven years, four research clusters run by TUM and its cooperation partners will each receive up to 70 million euros in funding. Three have substantial contributions from TUM’s physics department. The clusters will focus on research into energy conversion, quantum technology, the origin of the universe and neurological diseases. TUM is now also preparing to submit its application for the next round of funding as a University of Excellence. It is the only technical university in Germany to have held this title consecutively since 2006. TUM and JGU activate new source of ultra-cold neutrons 2016-11-02 – Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have opened a new chapter in their long-standing collaboration concerning the generation of ultra-cold neutrons (UCN). A second source of ultra-cold neutrons has recently been installed at the TRIGA research reactor in Mainz. In initial tests, this source has been delivering excellent results. New exotic particle state puzzles theorists 2015-09-04 – Scientists from the COMPASS collaboration at CERN have observed a new exotic combination of light quarks. The discovery was made in an experiment that shoots pions at close to the speed of light towards a liquid hydrogen target. Now, the ball is in the theoretical scientists’ court to find an explanation for the new particle status. Some explanations have been proposed, but it has been impossible so far to correctly describe all characteristics of this exotic new feature. Scientists from the Physik-Department of Technische Universität München and the Excellence Cluster Universe had a leading role in the data analysis of the new finding. Scientists of Universe Cluster find hints on Higgs particle 2012-07-04 – Zwei internationale Forscherteams der Teilchenphysik-Experimente ATLAS und CMS haben heute (04.07.2012) am Europäischen Forschungszentrum für Elementarteilchenphysik CERN in Genf ihre neuesten Ergebnisse zur Suche nach dem Higgs-Teilchen vorgestellt. Beide Experimente, die am Large Hadron Collider (LHC), dem größten Teilchenbeschleuniger der Welt stehen, beobachten in ihren Nachweisgeräten ein bisher nicht bekanntes Teilchen, das eine Masse im Bereich von 125 bis 126 Giga-Elektronenvolt hat. Es könnte sich durchaus um das seit Jahrzehnten gesuchte Higgs-Teilchen handeln. Dieses „Geisterteilchen“ ist ein notwendiger Baustein zur Erklärung, wie Elementarteilchen zu ihrer Masse kommen. Zahlreiche Wissenschaftler des Exzellenzclusters Universe sind am ATLAS-Experiment beteiligt. (Quelle: Universe Cluster) erste Seite 1–5 of 5 news articles last page
