The Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics will deliver breakthroughs in our understanding of the Universe through the pursuit of the discovery of dark matter particles which comprise 80% of the mass of the universe. It assembles for the first time a strong and diverse team of physicists from particle, nuclear, and quantum physics as well as particle astrophysics. It will deliver high-profile experiments using new cutting-edge technologies. The Centre will exploit the unique geographical location of the first underground physics lab in the Southern Hemisphere. The ultra-sensitive detectors and ultra-low radiation techniques will translate into a broad range of industrial applications and train a new generation of scientists.Read moreRead less
ARC Centre of Excellence for Particle Physics at the Tera-Scale. The Large Hadron Collider, a gigantic particle accelerator at the CERN laboratory in Europe, has commenced operation. It will discover how particles gain mass, explore the identity of cosmological dark matter, and search for the new laws of physics needed for a satisfactory theory of the structure of matter. the Centre will provide the enhanced capability and institutional coordination and development needed for Australia to make a ....ARC Centre of Excellence for Particle Physics at the Tera-Scale. The Large Hadron Collider, a gigantic particle accelerator at the CERN laboratory in Europe, has commenced operation. It will discover how particles gain mass, explore the identity of cosmological dark matter, and search for the new laws of physics needed for a satisfactory theory of the structure of matter. the Centre will provide the enhanced capability and institutional coordination and development needed for Australia to make a major contribution to this most prestigious international project. It will transform Australia's standing in fundamental physics, provide unsurpassed training, generate many linkages in science and technology, and lead an important public outreach program.Read moreRead less
ARC Centre of Excellence - Centre for Antimatter-Matter Studies. While our world is made of matter, all particles have anti-particles and the most abundant is the positron, the electron's antiparticle. It is the "workshop" for most anti-matter studies, particularly for the characterization of materials, including gases, polymers, insulators, thin films and surfaces, as well as the development of new and novel, nano-structured materials.

It is the "workshop" for most anti-matter studies, particularly for the characterization of materials, including gases, polymers, insulators, thin films and surfaces, as well as the development of new and novel, nano-structured materials. The ARC Centre of Excellence in Antimatter-Matter Studies (CAMS) will bring together key Australian and international scientists to work in this emerging scientific field of antimatter-matter interactions. It will forge a unique and effective scientific team for state-of-the-art studies of the nano-world that underlies many everyday processes and new technologies.Read moreRead less
