Utrecht Faculty of Science researchers are taking part in eight out of the 21 projects in the ENW-XL Open Competition, one of which as principal investigator.
On July 5, after a break of more than three years, Run 3 started at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13.6 TeV, the highest ever reached.
Utrecht University and Nikhef researchers gained insight into the properties of neutron star material using data from nuclear collisions and gravitational waves.
Marco van Leeuwen, researcher at Nikhef and the Institute for Gravitational and Subatomic Physics (GRASP), will be the new spokesperson for the ALICE experiment at CERN. He will start in January 2023 for a period of three years.
