New discovery at Cern could hint at why our universe is made up of matter and not antimatter The finding could also open the door to the discovery of new particles.

Pleased to have written an article on one of the latest exciting results from LHCb - how we have discovered new differences between matter and antimatter in the decays of baryons.

Beginning of June saw members of our group travel to Sheffield for the SBND Collaboration Meeting
to give talks on the progress of their work.

Pictures show PhD Student Lucy Kotsiopoulou, MPhys student Luisa Velazquez-Fernandez and Post-doc Miquel Nebot-Guinot who was chairing the session.
