Physics then and now – the life and work of Don Perkins
Captioned

Neutrinos at Soudan and proton decay

Join Professor Mark Thomson on a journey through particle physics from his early days in proton decay experiments to roles in major neutrino projects like MINOS and DUNE, and the profound implications of particle physics research.

Don Perkins and Charged Currents

Professor Chris Llewelyn-Smith provides a detailed account of Don Perkins' contributions to particle physics, his role as a leading figure, and his impact on the field through his work on neutrino interactions and particle physics.
Theoretical Physics - From Outer Space to Plasma

... from collisions to the Higgs boson

To study the Higgs boson at the LHC we also need to understand how highly energetic quarks and gluons interact, among themselves and with the Higgs.
Theoretical Physics - From Outer Space to Plasma

From protons to collisions…

We learn about the Higgs Boson and its interactions at the LHC by examining the debris produced by colliding protons head-on at unprecedented high energies.
Theoretical Physics - From Outer Space to Plasma

What the Large Hadron Collider is telling us about the Higgs sector and its new interactions

Over the past two years, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has started to directly probe a qualitatively new class of interactions, associated with the Higgs boson.
Oxford Physics Public Lectures

The Standard Model and the LHC! in the Higgs Boson Era

Members of the Rudolf Peierls Centre for Theoretical Physics hosted the 6th morning of Theoretical Physics covering the ways in which ideas from theoretical particle physics guide the high energy accelerator programme at CERN.
Big Questions - with Oxford Sparks

"Matters of Scale" - Complete Episode

The issues of scale are investigated – from how properties change at very small scales, to the vastness of the Universe. Includes parts 1, 2 and 3.
Big Questions - with Oxford Sparks

"Matters of Scale" Part 1 - Extremes of Scale

Professors Pedro Ferreira and Alan Barr explain what scale means to them, from particle physics to the visible universe. At the subatomic level, gravity has a surprisingly large effect and particles are so small that they have no size.
Digital Humanities at Oxford Summer School

Beyond Digital Humanities: Skills, Application and Collaboration

A thought-provoking closing keynote given by Melissa Terras, University College London, at DHOxSS 2014.
Journey of a Molecular Detective; David Sherratt

Matter, Antimatter and The Mystery of Existence

In this talk Nazim Hussain, Oxford University, will provide an introduction to matter and antimatter and the interplay between them.
Journey of a Molecular Detective; David Sherratt

How to find a Higgs boson

The discovery of the Higgs boson last summer is widely regarded as one of the most important scientific discoveries of our time.
Oxford Sparks: bringing science to life

A quick look around the Large Hadron Collider

Oxford Sparks presents a visit to the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Geneva. Find out more and explore other LHC resources at www.oxfordsparks.net/animations/lhc No protons were harmed in the making of this animation.
Case Studies In Innovative Practice

Student Innovation: the LHSee app

Chris Boddy, a Physics DPhil candidate at University of Oxford, talks about how he developed a smartphone app to explain the complex images produced by the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
Journey of a Molecular Detective; David Sherratt

Higgs boson-like particle discovery claimed at the Large Hadron Collider

Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider claim the discovery of the Higgs boson particle. Alan Barr of Oxford's Physics department, UK physics coordinator for LHC's ATLAS experiment, describes what it means for science.
Journey of a Molecular Detective; David Sherratt

Alan Barr on Particle Physics

Dr Alan Barr, University Lecturer in the Particle Physics group in the University of Oxford's Department of Physics, discusses the particle physics experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, CERN, Switzerland.
