About us

Cosmology, neutrino-oscillations and theoretical considerations indicate that unknown particles should exist at energies above 100 GeV, and new forces at distances less than 10-18m, i.e. new physics beyond the Standard Model. With the new LHC particle accelerator coming online at CERN, this research program, coherently combining the efforts from 7 research institutions in the Netherlands, intends to explore particle theory in these domains.
