The Lancaster Particle Physics Package (LPPP)-LHC Module

Award £6,000

The focus of this project is to interest young people in particle physics and is aimed at increasing awareness on the progress in High Energy Physics (HEP ). It allows users to control simulated particle collisions and to carry out calculations on the results. A new module of this package, focussed on the Large Hadron Collider, will be developed and added to existing modules.
