The Division of Particle Physics at the Department of Physics at the Lund University does research and teaching at the high energy frontier and in relativistic heavy ion collisions.

The division is mainly involved in the ATLAS experiment at the proton-proton collider LHC at CERN as well research with relativistic heavy ions in the ALICE experiment also at CERN.

Our division offers a complete particle physics research programme, complemented by our involvement in e-science enabling technology research via the NorduGrid Collaboration. We give courses and labs in particle physics, see our education pages.

We are also involved in detector research and development towards a future linear electron-positron collider.

There is also a close collaboration with the theoretical high energy physics group at the department of Astronomy and Theoretical physics.
