Awards & Honours Cyclotron Celebrated as an Engineering Milestone 16 December 2010 A special ceremony on Thursday, December 16, 2010, celebrated the recognition of first beams from TRIUMF’s main cyclotron in 1974 as an engineering milestone for Canada.
Current Events ACSI and TRIUMF Announce Partnership 16 December 2010 TRIUMF and ACSI—a leading designer, manufacturer, and installer of cyclotrons—have partnered to advance and promote cyclotron and accelerator technologies for providing healthcare for Canadians.
Headlines A Special Feature on Fundamental Symmetries 16 December 2010 This article is a special feature on Fund- amental Symmetries. Learn what they are, why they are important, and about the workshop held in July 2010.
Headlines SFU President Andrew Petter visits TRIUMF 14 December 2010 On November 9th, 2010, Simon Fraser University President Andrew Petter made his first visit to TRIUMF. SFU is part of the consortium of 16 universities that own and operate TRIUMF.
Headlines Explaining Dark Matter & Anti-Matter - All at Once 09 December 2010 Particle physics theorists from TRIUMF, UBC, and Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US have proposed a new theory for the way that the anti-matter half of the universe could have disappeared at the Big Bang.
Experimental Result New Property in Warm Superconductors Discovered 07 December 2010 Led by Simon Fraser University physicist Jeff Sonier, scientists at TRIUMF have discovered something that they think may severely hinder the creation of room-temperature (20-25 degrees Celsius) superconductors.
Current Events Selkirk College TRIUMFs in Physics Research 07 December 2010 Selkirk College in Castlegar, BC, has joined forces with TRIUMF as the first college in Canada to work with TRIUMF through a Memorandum of Understanding.
Experimental Result ATLAS Scientists catch glimpse of the Primordial Universe 26 November 2010 After less than three weeks of colliding lead ions at the highest energies ever achieved, scientists at the LHC laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland, already have brought new insight into the universe as it existed immediately after the Big Bang.
Experimental Result Qweak Experiment Starts at Jefferson Lab 26 November 2010 After more than ten years of planning and construction, the Qweak experiment at Jefferson lab is now taking data. The experiment will make a very precise measurement of the proton's `weak charge', which has a well defined value in the current standard model of physics.
Experimental Result ALPHA Collaboration captures antimatter 17 November 2010 Boldly going where the universe has not gone before, a group of international scientists at the CERN laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland have succeeded in capturing anti-matter atoms.
