Major research infrastructures acknowledged for the HEP@VUB strategic project

12/05/2020 - 11:30

With about 50 researchers in HEP@VUB we perform fundamental research towards a profound and comprehensive understanding of both the largest and smallest structures around us. By combining theoretical and experimental research of high-energy phenomena in the universe and on the tiniest quantum scale a coherent picture of the reality around us emerges.
